fragment of "Musical Grammar" by M. Dyletsky.A native of Kyiv, Mykola Dyletsky is called the creator of the Western school of partes music, which gave the world a number of outstanding composers. He wrote the theoretical work “Musical Grammar” — a monument of the Ukrainian Baroque — which was published exactly 350 years ago in Vilna (now Vilnius). In it, Dyletsky explained in detail the technical features of partes singing and composition. And what is important! In this work, he was the first in the world to describe the circle of fifths — as a graphic diagram by which a musician can trace the harmonic connections between all major and minor keys of 12 notes. For composers, this work made it easier to write music. This is really worth paying attention to… The work “The Resurrection Canon” by Mykola Dyletsky. Please listen.

Living Echo of the Cossack Elite: Georgiy Narbut in Paraska Apostol’s Kontusz with Kelep and Colonel MiloradovychIn the photograph, Georgiy Narbut stands in the Cossack hall of the Tarnovsky Museum (now a room of the Chernihiv Regional Library for Youth), fully immersed in a historical Ukrainian image. He is dressed in the kontusz of Paraska Apostol, daughter of Hetman Danylo Apostol, holding a kelep in his right hand, while to his right stands Colonel Mykhailo “Cannon” Miloradovych. This staged yet documentary scene shows Narbut not just studying Cossack-era artifacts, but literally wearing them, turning himself into a living embodiment of the Ukrainian noble-Cossack past.

About the Shah of Persia in OdessaShah Mohammed Ali arrived in Odessa on September 10, 1909, fleeing the Persian revolution. He was given a two-story Gothic palace of Brzhozovsky on Gogol Street with 40 rooms to live in; the rent was 12,000 rubles per year and was not paid by him personally. The legend of the “shah’s harem in Odessa” is not confirmed by the press of the time: the media covered his life in detail, but did not write about the harem. In 1911, he secretly left, trying to regain the throne, and was defeated. There are references that in 1912 he was briefly returned to Odessa, but in 1913 the former ruler was no longer in the city, which contradicts later claims that he left only in 1920. Sources (not Wikipedia) are needed regarding his further movements after 1913.
