Dikran Tchouhadjian; Mouvement Perpetuel for Piano and Orchestra (1896)

Dikran Tchouhadjian (a.k.a. Tigran Chukhajian) (1837-1898) was an Ottoman/Armenian composer. His nationality is a matter of some potential controversy. He was born in Constantinople (now Istanbul) and lived most of his life in the Ottoman Empire which we now call Türkiye, but it would probably be incorrect to refer to him as Turkish, as neither he nor the Turks of the day would have considered him such. It's also not entirely correct to say that he was Armenian since he never lived in Armenia, but that's the best we can say. Nevertheless, he is mostly known for introducing the Turkish audience to European opera, composing the first ever opera in the Armenian language and possibly the first in Turkish as well (the latter claim is disputed).

If you like what I do, please consider supporting me on Patreon: patreon.com/ForgottenPianoConcertos Patrons get priority requests and early access to all my videos. This piece was too short to be a regular release, and too long for a Short, and unlike some other sets of pieces like these I've done recently (Fonseca, Olsen), I've only got the one from this composer, so I'm releasing it as a bonus off-schedule drop. This also marks my first ever composer from the continent of Asia (even if it is only Asia Minor), so it's part of my effort to expand my repertoire geographically and ethnically. I'd like to feature pieces composed in east Asia as well, but it's hard to find any until very recently, and they are mostly not in the public domain yet. Disclaimer: Yes, it's synthesized. Obviously real musicians with real instruments would be vastly superior, but this simulated performance is better than nothing at all, which is what existed previously. My greatest wish is that these videos will inspire someone with the means to arrange a real performance and hopefully record and publish it so we can hear them in their full glory. If that someone is you, or you know of an existing recording of this, please let me know and I may add a link to this description.
