Perhaps, first industrial symphony ever existed, created in early 1920. Reconstructed by by Sergey Khismatov in 2009
— Allegedly, one of his first acts was to ask Vladimir Lenin if he could burn all the pianos in Russia.

On 7 November 1922 - the five-year anniversary of the October Revolution - he conducted the inaugural performance of Symphony of Sirens (Гудковая симфония, Simfoniya gudkov), for which he is best remembered. Performed in Baku, with Avraamov conducting from a rooftop by waving two red flags, the piece involved navy ship sirens and whistles, bus and car horns, factory sirens, cannons, the foghorns of the entire Soviet flotilla in the Caspian Sea, artillery guns, machine guns, hydroplanes and renderings of Internationale, Warszawianka and Marseillaise by a mass band and choir. The performance also featured the magistral – an instrument invented by Avraamov which consisted of 50 steam whistles attached to pipes, which could be operated independently like the keys of a piano.[1] Symphony of Sirens was attempted just once more, a year later in Moscow, though at a much-reduced scale.
