==History== During the 1960s Students from the Kyiv special music school formed a band named after Ukrainian composer Mykola Lysenko. They initially played unique interpretations of Ukrainian folk songs. Later its members were exposed to the late works of The Beatles and started to rearrange works of Bach and Khachaturian.
