Myroslav Skoryk is one of Ukraine's leading composers and teachers, with a portfolio of works that include opera, a symphonic transcription of Paganini's Caprices, and a cycle of nine violin concertos written over a 45-year span (Volume 1 is on 8.574088). Concerto No. 5 utilises jazz elements and a vivid fugato, while Concerto No. 6 explores the use of sensual moods and provocative dance rhythms. Syncopation and lyricism suffuse Concerto No. 7, while No. 9 is both touching and dramatic. Concerto No. 8 offers a representation of events in Chopin's life through quotations, in combination with Skoryk's own distinctive musical voice.
