Alexander Spendiaryan Museum, Biographical museum of Armenian composer in Nalbandyan Street, Yerevan, Armenia.
The Alexander Spendiaryan Museum is a biographical museum in Yerevan dedicated to an Armenian composer's life and work. The exhibition halls display personal possessions, musical compositions in manuscript form, and the original workspace with period furnishings preserved as it once was.
The museum opened in 1967 in the apartment where the composer spent his final years between 1926 and 1928. He founded the tradition of Armenian symphonic music and left a lasting mark on the nation's classical music world.
The composer shaped how Armenians think about their musical heritage through works that blend European and local traditions. Visitors can sense his influence on the national music scene as they walk through the display.
The museum is open several days per week with guided tours offered in multiple languages. Plan your visit in advance to confirm which language guides are available on your preferred day.
During special events, visitors can taste hot cocoa made from a recipe created by the composer himself. This unusual experience connects personal history with sensory discovery.
