This article attempts to interpret the composition as an example of neoromanticism, acknowledging its inseparable connection to the past while simultaneously exploring the stylistic features of the composer¡¯s method. Significant attention is devoted to the romantic idea of synthesis: ¡°The Songs of Bukovina¡± exhibit a fusion of incongruous elements, seamlessly combining disparate and diverse materials. %K Allusion %K Leonid Desyatnikov %K Polystylism %K < %K i> %K The Songs of Bukovina< %K /i> %K Ukrainian Folk Music %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=127145
