About Տիգրան Մանսուրյան
Tigran Mansurian (Տիգրան Մանսուրյան, b. 1937) is a notable Lebanese-Armenian musician and composer. Mansurian was born on 27 January 1937 in Beirut, Lebanon. In 1947 Mansurian's family moved to Armenia, finally settling in the capital city of Yerevan in 1956. Mansurian studied at the Yerevan Music Academy with Edvard Bagdasaryan, completing his PhD with Lazarus Saryan at the Yerevan State Musical Conservatory, where he later taught contemporary music analysis. In a short time he became one of Armenia's leading composers, establishing strong creative relationships with international performers and composers such as Valentin Silvestrov, Arvo Pärt, Alfred Schnittke, Sofia Gubaidulina, André Volkonsky, Edison Denisov, Kim Kashkashian, Jan Garbarek, and the Hilliard Ensemble. Mansurian was the director of the Komitas Conservatory in the 1990s, and has since retired as an administrator and teacher in order to concentrate exclusively on musical composition. Mansurian's musical style is characterized mainly by the organic synthesis of ancient Armenian musical traditions and contemporary European composition methods. His body of work comprises orchestral compositions, seven concerti for strings and orchestra, sonatas for cello and piano, three string quartets, madrigals, chamber music, and works for solo instruments. In 2006 Mansurian was nominated for a Grammy, making him the first Armenian composer to have ever been nominated for this award.
