BRIEF PROGRAMME NOTE: A rondo featuring Ukrainian folk tunes.The refrain is Kolomeike, кoлoмийкa, a very quick duple-time dance tune, with a variable scale, popular in Ukraine for weddings and other festive occasions, often led by the clarinet with soft reed and many smears. EPISODES are mostly sad love-songs: A. Чом ти не прийшов: a girl (Oboe) sings Why did you not come and meet me in the moonlight? Wouldn't your mother let you Dorian mode. B. Slow Waltz: I have seen this with G major accompaniment, but I have used G mixolydian: a popular mode in Ukraine.The Bassoon has the melody. C. O, in the cherry orchard Ой, у Вишневому Саду. A girl (Clarinet) sings that she begged her boyfriend to take her home from the orchard, as it was late, but he took a different girl. Mother (Oboe) knows what has been going on, but is sympathetic. G minor. And D Tanietz: a very fast dance tune led by the Clarinet: I do not know its name. Then E a reprise of the Cherry Orchard. F.Ти ж мене підманула You tricked me and let me down. I have seen and heard this sung cheerfully and very fast, but its lyrics are really sad. Players will choose. The basic melody is attributed to Semen Klimovski.
