Khachaturian is mainly famous these days for his Adagio from Spartacus which was used as a signature tune to the 1970s series: The Onedin Line. However, for many years, his main claim to fame was his ballet music to Gayane which includes the famous Sabre Dance, among other lively pieces. The movements on this recording are as follows: Sabre Dance, Ayeshas Dance, Dance of the Rose Maidens, Dance of the Kurds (Mountain Men), Lullaby, Dance of the Young Kurds, Ahmens Variation, and Lezginka. Much of the music is based on Kurdish, tribal rhythms.
