Vakhtang Jordania was a Georgian conductor.Jordania was born in Tbilisi the Republic of Georgia on Dec. 9, 1942, where he studied piano from the age of five.

A top prize at the 1971 Herbert von Karajan Competition catapulted him to the highest circle of Soviet artistry. From his assistantship with the legendary Yevgeny Mravinsky until his defection to the United States in 1983, Mr. Jordania held positions as music director of the Leningrad Radio Orchestra, the Saratov Philharmonic, and the Kharkov Philharmonic. The Tchaikovsky Competition was under his baton twice. Conducting more than one hundred concerts a year, he regularly toured the USSR, collaborating with musicians such as David and Igor Oistrakh, Leonid Kogan, Dmitri Shostakovich, Kiril Kondrashin, and Emil Gilels.
