Motivic Intertextuality and Embedded Intermusicality: Performer Agency in Babajanian’s Violin Concerto First Movement
Mayya Musaeva and Tham Horng Kent · 2025
Catalogue summary
Motivic cells in Babajanian’s concerto become sites where Armenian modal gestures, Soviet formal strategies, transformation, and performer-led interpretation create unity and expressive nuance.
Why this matters
Concentrating on the Allegro gives performers a culturally grounded reading of one movement while advancing reevaluation of an underperformed Soviet-Armenian repertoire.
