'Sayat Nova' by Alexander Arutiunian is a recent addition to the operatic repertoire. It is essentially a

pastiche musically based on the songs of the eighteenth century Armenian Ashough, or minstrel, Sayat

Nova. The composer has succeeded in creating a work in which the musical genius Sayat Nova is brought

into relief, affording the listener a fresh perspective of the minstrel's art.                                                

 

In this opera every facet of Arutiunian's creative personality comes through his lyricism, melodic gift

and affinity for folk music, particularly that of troubadours. He has succeeded in bringing forth many of

Sayat Nova's qualities through discriminating judgement in matters of artistic and historic nature.  He

presents the great minstrel as a man of intense feelings, as an immensely talented musician and as a

beloved bard, dedicated to the survival of the motherland.
