His best-known works were two national operas, Anoush (premiere: Alexandropol, 4 (17) August 1912, the first opera performance in Armenia) and Davit Bek (1950); the latter of which premiered only months before his death and was his final composition.[2] BiographyTigranian was born in Alexandropol in the Russian Empire (present-day Gyumri, Armenia).[3] He started becoming interested in music at a very early age. Tigranian received his musical training in Tbilisi,[4] and in 1902, he finished his education at the Tbilisi Music College, studying composition with Makar Ekmalyan. He devoted himself to teaching and continued composing music, mainly songs and romances in Armenian folk traditions. Tigranian's opera Anoush, written in 1908 and remodelled in 1932, is called the "national opera of the Armenian people".[5] Anoush, based on Hovhannes Tumanian's story of country romance and tragedy captured the attention of audiences and became a perennial of the concert repertoire.[6] The American premiere of "Anoush" took place on May 27, 1923 at the Lexington Opera House in New York, in a presentation marketed toward the Armenian immigrant audience. What was billed as the "professional American premiere" of Anoush took place in 1981 at Michigan Opera Theatre. The history of Karabakh Melikdoms inspired the opera David Bek (1950).[7] Among the other works by Tigranian are the drama Leily and Mejnun, Eastern Dance for symphonic orchestra and New Spring chorus for 4 voices. BurialTigranyan is buried in the Yerevan Central Cemetery also known as Tokhmakh cemetery.[8] According to hush.am (Armenian genealogical initiative) he shares grave with Elizaveta Aristakesyan and Vardan Tigranyan.
