Aram Khachaturian was an Armenian composer known for sweeping orchestral works and electrifying ballet scores. Spartacus and Gayaneh are among his most popular creations, full of memorable melodies and colorful orchestration. Spartacus tells the story of the slave revolt through music of epic scope, featuring the famous Adagio (often used in figure skating) and rousing martial themes. Gayaneh, a ballet set in Soviet Armenia, brims with folk-like melodies and sophisticated harmonies. Yuri Simonov and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra deliver these works with warmth and power, capturing both their grand gestures and intimate moments. The 2001 Regis Records recording is clear and well-balanced. These suites, extracted from the complete ballets, give an excellent overview of Khachaturian's orchestral gifts. His music is unabashedly romantic and colorful—perfect for listeners who appreciate 20th-century orchestral showmanship.
