Arthur Lourié

Artur Sergeyevich Lurye (Russian: Артур Серге́евич Лурье; born Naum Izrailevich Lurya; Russian: Наум Израилевич Лурья; 14 May 1892 – 12 October 1966), better known as Arthur-Vincent Lourié, was a Russian composer, writer, administrator, and musical agent. Lourié played an important role in the earliest stages of the organization of Soviet music after the 1917 Revolution but later went into exile. His music reflects his close connections with contemporary writers and artists, and also his close relationship with Igor Stravinsky.
