Aram Khachaturian – Sabre Dance – Gayane Sheet Music for String Quartet is a movement in the final act of Aram Khachaturian's ballet Gayane (1942), where the dancers display their skill with sabres. It is Khachaturian's best known and most recognizable work. He apparently felt that its popularity “deflected attention from his other works.” Its middle section is based on an unnamed Armenian folk song. According to Tigran Mansurian, it is a synthesis of an Armenian wedding dance tune from Gyumri tied in a saxophone counterpoint “that seems to come straight from America. “Sabre Dance” is considered one of the signature pieces of 20th century popular music.
