Aram Khachaturian - Masquerade Suite - Waltz 

because he is Armenian😉🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲

I know him, he is a great composer if that means anything.

@@slavikarakelyan7727 bruh what does that has to do with anything fr

YES, because all such geniuses from small states are.

@@strawbebby7092 Because Armenians are artistic people by nature, yet our music remains unheard.

This composition please

So glad it had the wherewithal to see you in that burning house!!😂

Interesting How was it stuck in your head your parents used to play it at home ?

Fantastic!♡

SAME! My first concert and had to have the album at ten years old. Once Napster began I listened to every Composer I could from the era - reunited & its sounds so good. (HA. Napster is old too)

Glad you found it! This song is great

@@ameinso

it will be all the rock n roll people and metal heads.

One direction fans

Classical happens to be my second favourite genre :)

I'm a rock n roll person lol, but classical music is great

you are really dont know what you are saying "metal heads" as you call them and people that listen to rock n roll do listen to classical music too but you are too blinded from a stupid propaganda that was created from people like you who think that metal and other similar types of music is garbage sure that music might not compare to classical music but it is still good

Khachaturian is a Soviet scientist. He is a physicist by profession.

his violin concerto is also nice :)

One hit wonder for what piece exactly? Idk much about this composer so im wondering what his most popular stuff is

@@user-yc6vr8vn5j Probably referring to the Sabre Dance.

He is Armenian never can be 1 hit wonder

You don't even want to listen to "The Year 1905" by Dmitri Shostakovich. It will shred your soul. He captured the darkness of what happened and what followed......and hasn't ended.

The darkness of killing our brothers to protect the people that have destroyed all our nations?

@@jacko4483 The first people's revolution happened in 1905. The glorious event that liberated the people of Eastern Europe and then the whole world. Shostakovich was a staunch communist and so was Khachaturian, so I'm pretty certain they saw the Revolution in good light as well. Besides, even if you aren't a communist. It doesn't take a lot to understand that the communist rule was undeniably a superior and much more progressive one than the Tsarist one for the working class population.

@Ari-ne2yb yeah, sure. So how's that ideology working out these days? Gloriously. Yep, just like China. Bastions both as beacons of hope for the rest of the world.

@@jacko4483 And china is famously communist today? USSR worked great under communism btw. The communist party brought a feudal country from nowhere to 10k USD per annum of per capita GNI in 1991. Sure it was more authoritarian than what we had hoped for but comeon. Russia after communism is less authoritarian now? And before communism was last authoritarian? And about China, what was it before communism? A damn monarchy. Considering all of this, communism has actually worked wonders for the third world and brought us out of colonialism. The economic problems my country faces and many such countries in the global south face have only been amplified after the fall of the USSR. Labour share of income used to be 75% in the country I am from in 1980, today it's dropped to 54%. This is directly the influence of the forced privatization that we had to do after the fall of the USSR under pressure of the IMF. Which continues to do this still around the world. The only fault with communism is that the Revolution started in a country like Russia instead of Germany, USA or France even though almost all ideological synthesis of socialism and communism has been purely Western European. That and the fact that the USSR dissolved in 1991 are the only two tragedies of communism.

As one should comrade.....As one should.

@@JustANervousWreck you mean piece?

@@yashbspianoandcompositions1042 sure

Yngvisun It's a true masterpiece. I think the only one that comes close for me is Sviridov's "Snowstorm" waltz. ;)

Yngvisun Try Shostakovich Waltz No 2, I had similar feelings

+Yngvisun Why ? Have you ever heard the Shostakovich's Waltz No. 2 ? Try to find it and listen ! It is so wonderful as this one. Regards.

+Yngvisun Try Profofiev, the two waltzes from his Cinderella ballet.

+ Барбара MacRobie Profofiev? maybe Prokofiev?

Indeed a genius.❤

What a beautiful way of describing it. ❤

@@travis07ful I’m underrating

absolutely

You're very right

But, but, he's Russian!!!! The horror, the horror!

And I give in every time

Именно так !!!:D

It is, most definitely indeed.

rhythm?

If I could dance I would sweep the floor with my honey on this tune. We would be waltzing in Vienna or Moscow,in the finest regalia.

To me it sounds like a masquerade ball full of villains and high society schemers. Beautiful and mesmerizing dancing, but you know the whole while that someone is plotting someone else's assassination.

It’s a bit in the same vein like the Shostakovich Waltz No 2, though the styles are different. Nothing romantic or flowery about this music. This is what dancing with the Devil must sound like.

@@philipc67 Yes! I like that one too

@@b09137 I'm about to ask you a very good question

@@b09137 thank you!

leftmebreathless79 no apologya to the aristocracy allow here.

Fuck good feeling partyes

And imagine how amazing it would be to live through that era....

leftmebreathless79 it inspires in me the same imagery but with a sense of great dread as though it were a horror movie

those balloon skirt and sleeves

It will be The Batman who laughs for sure

I'm thinking differently. What I'm imagining is an assassin in masquerade slowly dancing his way to his target

This is a very bombastic piece so I imagine a terrorist plot with a touch of assassination and chaos. Panic, discordance, and absolute confusion. Like a cascading waterfall from a burst dam, I imagine the crowd scrambling to the doors.

In remember a scene from The Simpsons about Ukranian mob and the Waltz when the mobs heads wife was killed

Well that was oddly specific 😅😂

Thanks taytokitalove.

Thanks andrewf4400.

Well 37 is boring until spring

@Spilled Milk no not the milk

he has a georgian nationality as-well as this piece so why did u say Russian

@@katrinyoung2073 Because he's a Soviet composer born in Russian Empire, not just Armenian. He spoke Russian and lived in Moscow since he turned 19. He learned and graduated in Moscow, he spent all his life and created his masterpieces in Russia (though buried in Erevan in Armenia). He's as much a Russian genius as an Armenian one. Same thing with the great Americans, they may be of African or Jewish or Anglo-Saxon or Indian origins, but we consider them a part of American culture.

@@memmori1 Living somewhere doesnt make you that ethnos, especially when you are a hostage in the city of your oppressors. Stop trying to white wash the imperialistic conquest, occupation and exploitation of neighbouring nations of the Tsars and Soviets

@@mithridates5399 I don't need to "whitewash" anything that is not dirty. Before you open your mouth and speak, try to find a brain in your head, turn it on and think over those numbers. In 1897, there were 800 000-1000000 Arnenians in Ottoman Empire. In 1915 Muslims killed many Armenians in the infamous massacre. In 1920 there were just 720 000 Armenians in Soviet Armenia. 1950: 1 347 200. 1965: 2 169 900. 1975: 2 799 700. 1991: 3 574 500. 2018: 3051000. No "conquered" and "oppressed" nation may triple its numbers. And after becoming independent in 1990 to this day, they lost about 500 000 to migration and other causes, that is a lot for a small 3-mln nation. So please think and analyza data before you speak nonsense again.

Spectacular

Armenians, are not only proud of him, but proud of Yosuf Karsh, Aisvensovski, Victor Maghakian, Ernest Dervishian, Harry Kizirian, William Saroyan, Tarkanian, Agassi, Cher, and whole lot more.

Thanks for that - good reminders!

Let's not forget Charles Asnavour, the great French singer :-) By the way, I think you meant Ivan Aivazovsky, the painter?

Surely we are proud!

Vahe Ohanian I loved Agassi I still do! And Cher is truly a gifted singer / actress.Sorry , but not too familiar w/ the rest you listed here.I'll study them!

You are right!War is awful...

Oh., there is hope..

Tell that to aliev

@@Sevan59 When I wrote that comment, I implied that the music as a whole is universal, I don't think of a nationality when listening to Mozart or Bach or Tchaikovsky. I just enjoy it. same goes here. During the 44days war we fought against the fake republic backed by Armenia on our internationally recognized home turf and got back the lands where 800.000 people were displaced during the 1st Karabakh war. Any foreigner with the rifle is an enemy on our land and Khachaturian can't change this simple fact.

No, there’s no hope. I was wrong.

Good for you lass ❤

Born in Tbilisi, FOR ME the man is georgian. (EDIT: He's actually russian, not soviet, russian)

***** Inspiration doesn't make your nationality. By that logic, if I'm inspired by tongan music that means I'm tongan, and I'm not. As for what he says, unfortunately, he doesn't get to choose his nationality, he just can say what he wants. And I can almost guess he said something like: "My soul is armenian", or something similar. And I want to make a correction: he is not georgian, he is in fact russian, why? In 1903 the cubic metre in where he was born was part of a thing called Russian Empire. Not Georgia, or, even less, Armenia. And also, he's not soviet as well, because Soviet Union only formed in 1922. It's like the football player Eusébio, he's portuguese, not mozambican, because Mozambique was part of Portugal when he was born. My compliments

Listen i won't even think about what you said as i know one thing he is Armenian,His name means Armenia,His Surname is Armenian His father and mother were Armenians he lived in Armenia even though the period of Soviet Union

Lily Lilanila You won't even think? Well... I don't need to say anything else then... But: when he was born, there was no Soviet Union, neither Armenia.... Look at this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_of_Independence_of_Armenia_(1918). He was born in 1903. Now what? His parents were from Armenia? How? Such nation didn't exist in that period. My compliments.

Oh i am very sorry for you that you don't know Armenian hiostory,,,but i don't care,,,Armenia has been so loooong,it is one of the ancient countries in the world,,Armenia was concuered and lost it's independence again in 1918...www.mapsofworld.com/world-ancient-history/ancient-armenia-map.html read this and learn more about Armenia please if you want...sorry for this question are you turk ))?

Second best. First place goes to Shostakovich Waltz # 2.

yes he has my vote...captivating

Eugen Doga waltz is the best

Which one? He wrote over 70 Waltzes.

My favorite ones are Prokofiev's cinderella waltzes, although those two are very close.
