State Anthem of the Armenian SSR (vocal) |
The State Anthem of the Armenian SSR (Armenian: Հայկական ՍՍՀ օրհներգ) was the national anthem of Armenia when it was a republic of the Soviet Union and known as the Armenian Soviet Socialist Republic. It was used between 1944 and 1991. Its music was composed by world-famous Armenian composer Aram Khachaturian[1] and the lyrics were written by Sarmen.[2] The anthem has no intro, unlike other SSR anthems.
One of the heroic themes heard in the III Act of Gayane (1942) was later used by Khachaturian in music of this National Anthem.[3]
Upon independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, Armenia adopted the anthem "Mer Hayrenik" in its place.
