An arrangement of one of the few surviving works by the remarkable Ukrainian composer Maxim Berezovsky (1745-1777) "Sonata for Violin and Guitar" (1772) - ("Sonata for Violin and Cembalo").
Maxim Berezovsky graduated from the Bologna Philharmonic Academy with honors (Mozart also studied there at the same time). He is the author of many choral works, as well as the first Ukrainian symphony, which was considered lost and was found in the archives of the Vatican by the American conductor Stephen Fox. After this event, Berezovsky immediately found himself among Russian composers and the author of the first Russian symphony, although before that his name and works were destroyed in every possible way and forgotten as a Ukrainian author. At the moment, Berezovsky's name is listed as a Russian composer in the Russian version of Wikipedia.
"Sonata for Violin and Cembalo" is the single surviving instrumental work by Berezovsky, written in Pisa in 1772, the manuscript is preserved in the Paris National Library.
This work has the characteristic features of the classical era, the flute, mandolin, domra can easily perform the violin's part. I hope you'll enjoy this music as much as I do. In turn, I consider it necessary to popularize the best examples of Ukrainian music that have been undeservedly forgotten or stolen.
