    I was five or six years old when I first heard this piece on television. It was the theme song from "The Onedin Line“. The music uplifted me and I was moved to tears. I had never heard anything like this before. I was falling in love.
    But I didn't know the name of the piece or the composer. I only knew: it’s this song from that „TV series with the sailing ships.“ For years I searched for the song, asked my grandparents, parents, aunts and uncles. Nobody knew it. There was no internet and no google to ask back then.
    Years went by. When I was 30 years old, I was in Speyer, Germany. All of a sudden I heard some music from a distance. There was a violinist at the cathedral. And he played that piece! I could not believe what I was hearing. I rushed towards the violinist. Talked to him. He told me the name of the piece and the composer. And played it again. Just for me.
    I felt like I had finally met the love of my life again - after losing her. And I could finally take her in my arms. After years of separation.
    And this is exactly what Spartacus & Phrygia is about.
    With one exception: i didn’t die.

      Thank you for your wonderful narrative. Just like you, I first heard the deeply touching melody in the English vessel series "The Onedin Line" in the 1980s and did not know which composer wrote this wonderful piece. It was only a few years later, by chance, that I bought a cassette of works by Khatchaturian and recognized the lyrical and dramatic Adagio of Spartacus and Phrygia. It is one of my favorite pieces by Khatcharturian, whom I love very much for his Caucasian and exuberant color. I also played a few easier piano pieces by Khatchaturian, who is technically very demanding, of course not really manageable for an amateur piano player.

      Bonjour, j'ai exactement connu la même anecdote, le générique de fin de ce feuilleton qui se passait sur un magnifique trois mats le "Charlotte Ross", moi non plus je ne savais pas qui avait composé ce déchirant adagio ! Je l'ai découvert plus de trente ans après en écoutant par hasard une station de radio qui passe du classique : France Musique ! Cela a été une révélation ! Je pleure comme une madeleine en l'écoutant... C'est juste sublime.

    The ballet is spectacular. And Spartacus and his wife dancing this on the eve of his defeat - heartrending.
    And then, a quotation from it does segue remarkably well into the sound-track behind a clipper cutting through the ocean .

    Armenian. Kachaturian is an armenian composer, but for those years Armenia was part of the URSS. Stop war in every part of the world. Stop Azerbaiyans agression over armenians in Nagorno Garapagh. Dont forget them
