Russian Concert
In his Piano Concerto, as in many of his other works, Khachaturyan has made use of themes derived from the folk music of his native Armenia. The Concerto, written in 1936, has established itself as a particular favourite with audiences in Russia. It was introduced to' this country by Moura Lympany in 1940. Colourful and exuberant, the Concerto can be easily appreciated at a first hearing.
