Hard, though, even for Khatch himself, to match his 'Spartacus"....I wonder which came first?

"kacthy" (my nickname for Aram) is not liked in the USA at this election cycle. "Symphony #3 and "Triumphal Poem" are his best in this genre.

@Nvart Andreasssian Banned or just not performed?

[@peterbuckley6974]

FANTASTIC, THERE IS SO MUCH EXCELLENT MUSIC DISGUSTINGLY UNPLAYED OR UNDERPLAYED MUSIC, WHERE AS BEETHOVEN AND A FEW OTHER COMPOSERS MUSIC IS CHILDISHLY FAR TOO MUCH OVERPLAYED DAY IN DAY OUT BY CONCERT HALLS AND RADIO STATIONS, WHO LET PEOPLE THINK THAT NO OTHER COMPOSERS MUSIC IS AVAILABLE .MOST CONCERT HALL AND RADIO STATION BOSSES NEED KICKING OUT OF THEIR JOBS.

[@user-ff9bs6yg3n]

Yes, in a way this is where youtube has unwittingly over taken the concert hall and the radio stations, most of my greatest musical experiences are on youtube now. I just got so sick of going to live concerts to here Beethoven's Eroica, Schuberts Unfinished and Dvoraks New World over and over again...

[@TheVisualMusicShow]

There is truth in this.

How much did you pay to listen to this or to keep an infrastructure intact?

[@slothropgr]

Whew! Khachaturian at his best--or worst, depending on how you feel about state-sanctified excess. His own "Marche Slav" which even Pyotr Ilich admitted was "a little noisy."

[@araxikeoshgerian8559]

As noisy as our feelings when we survived the genocide. While entire Europe and Christianity was watching us!

[@douglasmmartin2191]

Khachaturian has been ignored much too long

[@ArmenianKingdom]

how dare you to call him "Soviet" composer; he is genius above time and place.

[@alejandrod.dorumian4432]

@@MrFullService How do you explain the permanent folkloric armenian references? Sovietic system don't had one national identity. If you learn and listen different armenian academic musician's compositions, you will understand the point. Perhaps, you are trying to glorificate comunism's benefits.

[@pierfrancescopeperoni]

Что не так?

[@PhilippeRR1]

With such highly talented propaganda, great "soviet" artists (AK was Armenian) were guaranteed to stay alive. The main melody, here, can be easily whistled by stalin... and it's spectacular. It therefore passes the test of the Jdanovshchina of 1948. Shostakovich stayed alive by having having the soviet troups assault the Zeelow Heights accompanied by an arrangement of Soluko, stalin's favorite Georgian song (1949 movie THE FALL OF BERLIN).

[@eirikcheverud6198]

Could you expand on that a bit? Did Stalin have composers murdered for failing to abide by revolutionary principles applied to art, as he understood them? If no, did any composers end up in Siberia? Just curious, for my own edification. Thanks!

[@georgekraft1401]

Philippe Renaud Too true, too true. The oppression of the great artists was blot against humanity itself. Not to mention the millions of others who suffered and died under the Soviet regimes.

[@Queeen7q]

You are really stupid. You do not know even, that the name of famous Georgian song is SULIKO, but not fucking 'Soluko'. And that Khachaturian really was a Soviet composer, because Armenia was a part of the USSR. Do not imagine you know something about Soviet time - you are just an ignoramus. Go to hell with all your pals.

[@slothostpUL]

With all due respect, you are a disgusting, self-promoting butt-wipe. I pray that you will never have any progeny that you can foist your self-aggrandizing junk. Anyway, have a great night.
