Beskrivning

Noel Rawsthorne, who was the first British organist to play in the USSR, met Mushel while on tour and was dismayed to find the young composer prohibited by the Soviet authorities from performing his own compositions. Rawsthorne took this piece back to Britain and edited it for publication. It is very much in the spirit and style of a Ukrainian Cossack dance; the feel is improvisatory, with contrasting sections allowing different dancers to express themselves, before typically culminating in a fast and furious finish.

Mer om författaren

Russian composer and pianist Georgi Mushel studied composition with A.N. Aleksandrov, Gnesin, and Myaskovsky and the piano with L. Oborin at the Moscow Conservatory, graduating in 1936. In 1936 he moved to Tashkent, where he taught at the conservatory, being appointed professor of composition in 1976. Mushel's output embraces many formats; he laid the foundations for a number of genres hitherto non-existent in Uzbek music, including the piano concerto (of which he wrote six), the symphony, and piano music. His style, based on deep study of the traditional music of many eastern countries, organically combines features of Western and Russian music with those of Uzbek folk music and oral tradition.
