PanARMENIAN.Net - Collection of note manuscripts and film music of a
world renowned Armenian composer Aram Khachaturian has been included
in UNESCO's Memory of the World Register.
The relevant UNESCO certificate was handed by the Minister of Culture
Hasmik Poghosyan to the Aram Khachaturian Museum director Armine
Grigoryan, ITAR-TASS reported.
"The application to the UNESCO was filed in 2012 on the initiative of
the Minisitres of Culture and Foreign Affairs. Fifteen note
manuscripts and film music included in the register are reposited in
the museum, as well as several documents provided by the composer's
son Karen Khachaturian," Gigoryan said.
Aram Khachaturian is a world renowned Armenian composer and musician
of genuinely universal stature who has left a comprehensive musical
legacy embracing almost all genres and forms. Making extensive use of
the Armenian rural and urban folklore, Khachaturian raised Armenian
composition school to a new classical level, ensuring its place in the
world culture. His works influenced the formation of the composition
schools in South Caucasus and Central Asian Republics.
