All performances are taken from out-of-print Melodiya LPs, never reissues on CD to the best of my knowledge. The composer's name is probably more correctly in Ukrainian Hleb Taranau.

Heorhiy Ilarionovych Maiboroda, sometimes transcribed in English as Georgiy or Heorhy Maiboroda or Mayboroda (Ukrainian: Георгій Іларіонович Майборода; b. Pelekhivshchyna khutir, Kremenchuk County, Poltava Governorate, Russia, 1 December [O.S. 18 November] 1913 – d. Kiev, Ukraine, 6 December 1992), was a Ukrainian composer.

Maiboroda, whose brother Platon Maiboroda was also a composer (mainly of songs), studied at the Glière College of Music in Kiev,[1] where he studied under Levko Revutsky, graduating in 1941 and teaching there from 1952 to 1958. From 1967 to 1968 he was head of the Composers Union of Ukraine.[2]

His musical career was based in Ukraine, and he set several operas to Ukrainian librettos, including Yaroslav the Wise (1973, published 1975), Arsenal (published 1961), Mylana (published 1960), and Taras Shevchenko (1964, published 1968;[3] based on the life of the Ukrainian artist and poet of that name), all of which were produced at the Kiev Opera House. He also prepared a performing edition of Semen Hulak-Artemovsky's opera, Zaporozhets za Dunayem.

Amongst other works, Maiboroda wrote a suite of incidental music to Shakespeare's King Lear, three symphonies, two piano concertos and a violin concerto, as well as numerous songs and romances.[4]

In 1963 he was awarded a Shevchenko National Prize for his work by the Ukrainian SSR.

Andriy Shtoharenko was born in the Ukrainian village of Novi Kaidaky (now part of the city of Dnipropetrovsk). He completed his music studies at the Kharkiv Conservatory in 1936 under S. Bohatyriov. From 1921-30 he worked a teacher of singing in Middle schools. In 1926 he became the director of an accordion ensemble.

In 1944 he became a member of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. From 1954 he lectured at the Kiev conservatory. In 1960 he became a professor and in 1968 became the rector of the above mentioned institution. From 1968 he was the head of the Union of Composer's of Ukraine.

As a composer, he was well-known within the Soviet Union, but he and his music remain entirely unknown elsewhere. He was awarded the Stalin Prize for his compositions in 1946 and 1952, and was awarded the prestigious title of People's Artist of the USSR. During his long career, he served in many positions, including Professor of Composition and Director of the Kharkiv Conservatory and later Kiev Conservatory.

Originally graduating as an button-accordion player and again as a composer. He composed in nearly every genre, primarily writing works for orchestra, solo piano, and voice. He also wrote number of film scores. His chamber music, though it comprises only a small part of his output, has been highly praised by critics. Shtoharenko's music shows the influence of Mussorgsky and Borodin in that many of his works tend to be of a programatic and descriptive nature. Most of Shtoharenko's works deal with political themes glorifying the Communist party. A large section also deal with themes such as the second world war and Friendship of Soviet Peoples.
