Isaak Osipovich Dunayevsky also Dunaevsky or Dunaevski (Russian: Исаак Осипович Дунаевский; 30 January 1900 Lokhvitsa, Poltava - 25 July 1955, Moscow) was a Soviet composer and conductor, who specialized in "light music" for operetta and film comedies, frequently working with the film director Grigory Aleksandrov. He wrote 14 operettas, 3 ballets, 3 cantatas, 80 choruses, 80 songs and romances, music for 88 plays and 42 films, 43 compositions for light music orchestra and 12 for jazz orchestra, 17 melodeclamations, 52 compositions for symphony orchestra and 47 piano compositions and a string quartet. He was one of the first composers in the Soviet Union to start using jazz. His music was accessible to the masses, with melodious and memorable tunes that secured his success. In a reply to the British book The World of Music, he listed the following as his chief works: The Golden Valley operetta (1937), The Free Wind operetta (1947), music to the film "Circus" (1935), and music to the film "The Kuban Cossacks" (1949).
