Gara Abulfaz oglu Garayev (December 5, 1918 in Baku – May 13, 1982 in Moscow) was an Azerbaijani composer. His name is also spelled Qara Qarayev, or the Russified form, Kara [Abulfazovich] Karayev (Кара Абульфазович Караев). Gara Garayev wrote nearly 110 pieces, including ballets, operas, symphonic and chamber pieces, piano solos, cantatas, songs and marches. His imprint on Azerbaijan's music is profound.
