Here's some more Armenian sonatas. Chebotarian has an earlier sonata from the 1940s as well as a piano trio, concert etudes, preludes, and a set of preludes/fugues on Armenian motives. Shakarian's first is a previous post on this thread. Manukian composed a concerto in the early 1980s and several other works:

Gayane Moiseyevna CHEBOTARIAN (CHEBOTARYAN)
Piano Sonata no. 2
Chebotarian - Piano Sonata no. 2 (1984).pdf
Stepan SHAKARIAN (SHAKARYAN)
Piano Sonata no. 2 ('Kolokola')
Shakarian - Piano Sonata no. 2 ('Kolokola').pdf
Irina MANUKIAN (MANUKYAN, MANOOKIAN, etc....)

Many thanks for all your uploads throughout the forum--lots of great contributions. I've given the Manukian Sonata a gentle squeeze to allow it to be uploaded here.

Here's a nice set of accessible piano pieces by Mikael Tariverdiev: Moods. At the request of a colleague I converted the multi-page tif file from Boris' site to PDF, cropping and adjusting rotation in the process.

Here's another short piece from Armenia:

Stepan SHAKARIAN (SHAKARYAN)

Sonatina, for piano
Shakarian - Sonatina, for piano.pdf
On an unrelated Caucasus music note, does anybody have any music or links to buy scores by Ossetian composer Rezvan Tsorionti? I'm particularly interested in his string quartet, of which I've found the second movement only (published in a volume of short quartet works), but he also composed some piano works, including a concerto.
