Description:
Impressions of Caucasus' is a short suite in 3 movements inspired by the folk music of the Caucasus (Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia). This piece is dedicated to 3 great musicians and composers from that region: The first movement is inspired by the music of Fikret Amirov one of the greatest composers of Azerbaijan and at the very beginning one can hear the reference to his music. The second movement is inspired by the folk music of Armenia and is dedicated to Komitas; an Armenian priest-musicologist and composer. He is considered the founder of the Armenian national school of music. The third movement is inspired by the folk songs of Georgia and especially the songs of Georgia's most famous singer Hamlet Gonashvili.
