The Sound of Caucasian Classical Piano

“The Sound of Caucasian Classical Piano” is a thoughtfully curated playlist that explores the deep musical traditions of the Caucasus and surrounding regions through the lens of classical piano. Featuring well-known composers like Rachmaninoff, Liszt, and Chopin alongside regional figures such as Komitas, Aram Khachaturian, and Arno Babadjanian, this playlist blends Western Romanticism with Eastern folk influences. The result is a rich tapestry of melodic expressiveness and technical finesse, showcasing a distinct stylistic identity shaped by cultural crosscurrents.

Many of the works included veer between intimate miniatures—like Kabalevsky’s pieces for children and Mompou’s delicate meditations—and full-scale concert works, such as Prokofiev’s energetic concerto movements and Kapustin’s jazz-inflected études. The playlist nods to national identity, particularly with Armenian, Georgian, and Russian composers adding local color to classical forms. Whether it’s the haunting beauty of a Komitas folk theme or the elegance of a Chopin nocturne, this collection offers a wide-ranging look at the piano’s voice across time and borders.
