Viktor
Yevseyevich Suslin (1942 –2012) was a Russian composer. Together with Sofia
Gubaidulina and Vyacheslav Artyomov he formed the improvisatory ensemble
'Astraea' in 1975.
In November
1979 after several performances of his works in Paris, Cologne and Venice,
Suslin was publicly denounced and blacklisted as one of the "Khrennikov's
Seven" at the Sixth Congress of the Union of Soviet Composers for
unapproved participation in some festivals of Soviet music in the West.
Suslin
emigrated to West Germany in 1981.
