Carpathian Con Diptych & Other Orch Works
Myroslav Skoryk holds the title of Peoples Artist of Ukraine and is one of his countrys outstanding composers. Both the Cello Concerto and the Seventh Violin Concerto combine bittersweet lyricism with explosive dynamic contrasts. With its swinging rhythms and folk music pungency the Carpathian Concerto is one of Skoryks most engaging and popular works. The pensive Melody for strings propelled him to the forefront of Ukrainian music, while the slapstick in his transcription of Paganinis Caprice No. 19 reveals the composers humorous side. These live recordings were made at Myroslav Skoryks 75th anniversary concerts in Odessa.
