Davit Bek is an heroic opera based on Raffi's epic novel which portrays a series of events from Armenia's turbulent

 past with historical accuracy. It is the story of the struggle and hardship of a nation at the beginning of the 18th

 century albeit one with a positive ending.  The hero manages to defeat the foreign oppressors by unifying all factions

of the country and starting the arduous task of "nation-building".                                                                           

 

Davit Bek is Tigranian's second and last opera. Like his masterpiece Anoush, this work too is coloured extensively

 with the enchanting tunes of Armenian folk music. Here he extends his palate to include music from neighbouring

Iran and Georgia and by doing so he creates contrasting images to great dramatic effect, e.g. the triumphant march

 of the Persian soldiers and the sorrowful opening chorus of the Armenians.
