Alan Hovhaness (/hoʊˈvɑːnɪs/;Armenian: Ալան Յովհաննէս, March 8, 1911 – June 21, 2000) was an American composer of Armenian and Scottish descent. He was one of the most prolific 20th-century composers, with his official catalog comprising 67 numbered symphonies (surviving manuscripts indicate over 70) and 434 opus numbers. However, the true tally is well over 500 surviving works since many opus numbers comprise two or more distinct works.
The Boston Globe music critic Richard Buell wrote: "Although he has been stereotyped as a self-consciously Armenian composer (rather as Ernest Bloch is seen as a Jewish composer), his output assimilates the music of many cultures. What may be most American about all of it is the way it turns its materials into a kind of exoticism. The atmosphere is hushed, reverential, mystical, nostalgic."

He writes: "The first movement is in the spirit of Armenian religious music in three great melodic arcs, the last having the mood of a spiritual". The opening clarinet choir employs an oriental harmonic device called the dragonfly, in which constant open harmonies and triads are periodi...
Alan Hovhaness - Two Ghazals for Piano, Op. 36 (1933-66) Alan Hovhaness' Ghazals is based largely on material composed during the mid-1960s, though it reuses an earlier opus number (a frequent occurence in the composer's catalogue). Hovhaness had previously used the main melody in his 1965 orchestral work Ukiyo, Floating World; in Ghazals, its treatment is more appropriately pianistic. This material surrounds a central section that features tone clusters and other dissonant harmonic techniques. The title refers to a kind of Persian love poem, a source of inspiration Hovhaness explored in other works such as Dance Ghazal (1941). -Description by Walter Simmons
