Modern composers

Composers that were born in Russia, or gained the Russian nationality.

Composers that were born in Armenia, or gained the Armenian nationality.

It is sometimes hard to tell when to call a composer modern, as opposed to Romantic. In general you can say that the Moder Eara in music started around the year 1900. However, many composers continued to write pieces in a romantic fashion long after that.
