Mykola Vitaliiovych Lysenko (Ukrainian: Микола Віталійович Лисенко; 22 March 1842 – 6 November 1912) was a Ukrainian composer, pianist, conductor, and ethnomusicologist of the late Romantic period. In his time, he was the central figure of Ukrainian music, with an oeuvre that includes operas, art songs, choral works, orchestral and chamber pieces, and a wide variety of solo piano music. He is often credited with founding a national music tradition during the Ukrainian national revival, in the vein of contemporaries such as Grieg in Norway, The Five in Russia, and Smetana and Dvořák in what is now the Czech Republic.
By studying and drawing from Ukrainian folk music, promoting the use of the Ukrainian language, and separating himself from Russian culture, Lysenko's compositions form what many consider the quintessential essence of Ukrainian music. This is demonstrated in his epic opera Taras Bulba from the novella of the same name by Nikolai Gogol. The grandeur and complexity, and a libretto in Ukrainian, prevented the opera being performed during the composer's lifetime.
Mykola Vitaliiovych Lysenko (Ukrainian: Микола Віталійович Лисенко, October 22 [O.S. October 3] 1842 – November 6 [O.S. October 24] 1912) was a Ukrainian composer, pianist, conductor and ethnomusicologist. He was born in Poltava Oblast son of Vitaliy Romanovich Lysenko (Ukrainian: Віталій Романович Лисенко). Since childhood he was very interested in the folksongs of Ukrainian peasants and by the poetry of Taras Shevchenko. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Mykola+Lysenko">Read more on Last.fm<
