Lyatoshynsky's songs are neglected even there: this anthology of his best romantsiy for low voice and piano contains many first recordings. The songs meld intense Scriabinesque expressionism with elements of Ukrainian folksong in a language that embraces both the lyrical and the dramatic. His setting of Shelley's Ozymandias, with it's warning of the impermanence of power, was a brave act in the Soviet Union of 1924. The booklet contains full sung texts, with English translations by Russian-music expert Anthony Phillips, who also provides an extensive introduction to Lyatoshynsky, his songs and his artistic milieu.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 After the Battle \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Death (At the Cemetery) \u003cbr\u003e1.3 An Old Song \u003cbr\u003e1.4 A Dirge \u003cbr\u003e1.5 I Had a Dream \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Good Night \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Ozymandias, Op. 15 \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Accursed Place \u003cbr\u003e1.9 The Tomb \u003cbr\u003e1.10 At the Crossroads \u003cbr\u003e1.11 On the Hills of Georgia \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Three Springs \u003cbr\u003e1.13 There on the Shore \u003cbr\u003e1.14 The Sun \u003cbr\u003e1.15 Your Eyes Are Like the Sea \u003cbr\u003e1.16 Boundless Plain \u003cbr\u003e1.17 Why Do You Never Laugh? \u003cbr\u003e1.18 Do Not Pass By So Proudly, My Child \u003cbr\u003e1.19 Recurring Dreams \u003cbr\u003e1.20 A Letter to Siberia \u003cbr\u003e1.21 Elegy \u003cbr\u003e1.22 The Star \u003cbr\u003e1.23 The Height of Happiness\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Vassily Savenko","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40557040599111,"sku":"20697754","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/2225535.jpg?v=1747370364","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/lyatoshynsky-savenko-blok-ozymandias-other-romances-for-low-voice-piano","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
