Talk:Borys Lyatoshynsky

Moves strange addition to talk
This below is the text added by user:Paeris. perhaps there is something in it, but we have to do some work to get any sense from it.
 * And is best known for his music works which have for symphony and orchestra work and perhaps his vocal choral work. He was not a rock and roll music but of the classic style and Moscow where before he made romantic lyric music.  He is big maker of Ukranian national music.

Dear author, if you have difficulty with English, please let us know what you meant to say in Ukranian or in Russian and mention any sources (the latter is desirable but not mandatory). --Irpen 23:09, 19 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Dear Irpen, if you have more to be wrong with, please go ahead. All I have said is fact and you can look in books and see yourself. user:Paeris

Dear Paeris, this simply isn't an encyclopedic writing. I beleive this person deserves more space than this small stub, but what you added needs rephrased, at least. I can't make sense from what you wrote. Please explain your edit in English, Ukrainian or Russian. And please calm down now! --Irpen 23:34, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Perhaps this is better: "And he is best known for his music works, such as symphony and orchestra. He has also finished many vocal work for chorus.  He was not of the music produced towards his death in 1960's, such as rock and roll music, but he was of the classical style such as when he was living in Moscow.  Originally in Moscow he produced romantic lyric music.  He became known as a big maker of Ukrainian national musics."

Symphony 4
I'll have to find a copy of the score - I believe New York Public Library may have this ... but B-flat minor, I thought? Schissel | Sound the Note! 15:47, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Keys
Fairly sure symphony 2 is in B minor (tonal center B, primarily the B minor/D major scale) not B flat as written- looks like a mistranslation from French or elsewhere, to confuse those two! No 3 also in B minor, #4 in B-flat minor... Schissel | Sound the Note! 15:44, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

(And his 4-plus string quartets are another matter of course. Iirc the score of qt#4 is floating around somewhere and seems to be in B-flat minor...) Schissel | Sound the Note! 15:46, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

Factual mistake and translation problems
"...folk material in his music, widening his repertoire of folk themes and making references to the other republics of the Soviet Union, such as Russia, Poland, Bulgaria, Serbia, and Slovakia." Except Russia, none of these were part of the Soviet Union. Besides that, the English is very poor, many sentences are unclear. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:41:4200:2EEA:CCC1:ADB:B9B4:ADEA (talk) 11:28, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

Lyatoshinsky not exactly persecuted "with Prokofiev and Shostakovich"
The previous wording in that section of this article implies that Lyatoshinsky had been among those named in the 1948 Anti-Formalist Resolution on Music. This is incorrect. The only composers named were Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Myaskovsky, Khachaturian, Shebalin, and Popov (Marina Frolova-Walker, Stalin's Music Prize: Soviet Culture and Politics, p. 226). Although Lyatoshinsky doubtlessly was also persecuted during this period at the local level of the Ukrainian SSR, this was something apart from the main Resolution and unlike what Prokofiev and Shostakovich endured. —CurryTime7-24 (talk) 22:41, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
