I have posted up a piece by Mikola Szczahłou-Kulikowicz (1893-1969).

It is a song (with orchestra) called Pahonia.  The pahonia is a symbol of Belarus - it's a mounted horseman holding a sword.    It was  the coat of arms of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, the Belarusian Democratic Republic in 1918 and of the Republic of Belarus from 1991 to 1995.

From various sources, using google-translate:
