The Ukrainian folk music is an immense source of inspiration, particularly the ritual songs, which represent the deepest, and therefore the most valuable layer of a nation?s creativity. The arrangement belongs to the early works of the composer. Therefore, someone may be surprised with the quite freely form interpretation of the work. This, however, by no way makes the composition less interesting. Rather on the contrary, weird music images and sudden changes of the tempo may draw attention of both, those who prefer ?light? pop or jazz music, and 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, parts ? 4 pages, cover and the title page). Fingering is indicated where appropriate. Duration: approx. 3.44 min.
