Music of the Caucasus [Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia etc.]

[caostotale]

Thank you for your help with this, Paul! (I regret to inform that there are quite a few more like this!)

Continuing onward, here is a work by Merab Partskhaladze that celebrates the Georgian folk instrument called the panduruli, an example of which can be heard here:

Partskhaladze included another work with this name in his Pieces (3), op. 3 (available elsewhere on the forum), but this is a different work:

Merab Alekseyevich PARTSKHALADZE
Panduruli, for piano
