Composer is found dead in Moscow
mainThe body of Igor Izvekov, 53, was found five days ago at an apartment on Malomoskovskaya Street, where he lived alone. An investigation is being conducted.
A graduate of the Gnessin Academy, he taught at the 93rd Moscow Children’s Music School and made transpositions for many ensembles.
Although something of a loner, he was widely known and liked among Moscow musicians.
Awful story. And good neobaroque music.
Was he a dissident?
Seems like it, considering the music.
Sadly, all too common in Russia.
