Giya Kancheli was a Soviet composer and the Honoured Artist of the Georgian SSR (1972). His music is closely tied to national musical traditions, marked by the organic integration of their characteristics. His comedy stands out for its sharp imagery, lyrical elevation, dynamic development and unique dramaturgy. The composer successfully imparted novelty and high artistry to simple everyday material. “The Tricks of Khanuma” is a joyful, spirited performance full of national colour and delightful Georgian humour.
