Suleiman (Solomon) Alexandrovich Yudakov (Tajik: Сулаймон Александрович Юдаков; Russian: Сулейман (Соломон) Александрович Юдаков) (14 April [O.S. 2 April] 1916 – 5 November 1990) was a Bukharian Jewish composer.

Biography

Suleiman Yudakov, a Bukharian Jew, was born in Kokand,[1] and started to devote himself to music in the orphanage where he spent three years of his childhood. His first teacher there was Mikhail Naigof. In 1932, he was accepted to the so-called rabfak (рабочий факультет, or workers' faculty - an educational establishment set up to prepare workers and peasants for higher education) of the Moscow Conservatory majoring as a flautist. In 1939, Suleiman Yudakov became a student in the class of Reinhold Glière[1] at the conservatory's Department of Composing. In 1941, he had to interrupt his studies due to the outbreak of the war and leave for Tashkent. From 1943 to 1946 he worked as artistic director at the Tajik State Philharmonic in Dushanbe, but then returned to Tashkent. He died on 5 November 1990. He was buried in Tashkent at the Bukhara-Jewish cemetery  .

Compositions

In 1944 he composed the melody of the Tajik SSR's regional anthem.[1] This melody has since been used in "Surudi Milli", the national anthem of Tajikistan.

After the war, Suleiman Yudakov composed many works, including the first Uzbek comical opera, ballets, cantatas, and symphonic music:

  • 1945 – "Сын", a drama ("The Son" in Russian; Tajik: Фарзанд, romanized: Farzand)
  • "Восточная поэма" (Vostochnaya poema/Eastern Poem), for violin and piano
  • "Fantasia for violin, violoncello and piano"
  • "Dancing suite" for two pianos, in three parts.
