I believe he is indeed still with us. I have the following works of his.
Some of them are a bit uneven. One of the Symphonies, possibly the 5th,
sounds influenced by a rather naive notion of popular music.
A Circle (complete ballet); Angara ballet fragments; Concerto for Oboe and
Orchestra; Concerto for Orchestra (rather jazzy. One of my favorite works
of his. May still be available on Russian disc from Berkshire-a great buy)
Concerto for Viola; 2 for Violin; No.2 for Piano; Hungarian Melodies for
Vln and Orch.; Lenin Among Us (1968); Violin Sonatas 1,2; Songs of Mountain
and Meadow Maris for Orchestra; Symphonies 2-6
