Mykola Lysenko, Ukrainian composer, pianist, choir conductor, was born on March 22, 1842. It was Mykola Lysenko who wrote the music for the choral work, which became the spiritual hymn of Ukraine – “God, Great, One”. He was one of the first to interpret Kobzar Shevchenko, made arrangements of folk songs, author of 10 operas and hundreds of other musical works.

Mykola learned to read from the famous poet Fet. Mykola Lysenko’s father commanded a squadron in the cuirassier regiment in which the poet served. Due to the fact that the teacher forced his student to write letters with a pencil during the lessons, the latter began to ask the officers for pencils, for which he was nicknamed “Pencil” in the regiment.
Mykola’s father spoke Ukrainian at home. And my mother, although from the Poltava region, forgot the language after studying in St. Petersburg, and therefore could not pronounce the word “palyanytsia”. It happened that he and Mykola spoke only in French, because he did not want to speak Russian. Later, when he became famous, his mother, to please him, switched to Ukrainian, but so clumsily that Lysenko laughed: “Mom, don’t torment Ukraine!”
Lysenka was predicted to be a brilliant success in Germany, but the composer chose Ukraine and returned to the Motherland.
He loved music, loved Ukraine. And this last feeling prevailed over the first. He set himself the goal of serving Ukrainian music…
