|---|
Ukrainian folk music is the immense source of inspiration, particularly the ritual songs, which represent the deepest, and therefore the most valuable layer of a nation’s creativity.
I wrote this piece many years ago as I had just began to learn how to compose music. Not knowing the composition technique at all I succeeded at that time to intuitively make a very interesting arrangement, with a quite free interpretation of the music form, and sudden changes of the character and tempo.
These intuitive findings make the piece interesting both for those who prefer more traditional music language and for those who is fond of contemporary academic style.
The Ukrainian title of the song is just an allegorical expression that has no particular meaning. This expression can be only quite approximately translated into English as “Cuckoo”, that’s why I didn’t display this translation in the English version of the work’s title. The PDF-file contains 11 pages (main score 4 зфпуі, parts – 4 pages, cover and the title page). Fingering is indicated where appropriate. Duration: approx. 3.44 min. |
