The best and brightest period in the development of music in the Belgorod region is closely connected with the name of Gavril Yakimovich Lomakin, who was not only a famous composer, but also an outstanding music critic and an organizer. He had a rare pedagogical talent. He was author of the first Russian choral textbooks for public schools. Gavril Lomakin was one of the greatest choral public figures of the 19th century.

G.Y Lomakin was born on March 25, 1812, in Sloboda Borisovka, in one of Count Sheremetiyev's serf families. He liked singing from his early childhood, so his parents sent him to the professional choir in Nickolayevskaya Church.

When Gavril was 10, he began to sing in Sheremetiyev's Choir in St. Petersburg. (It was one of the oldest ones in Russia). Here he received a musical education. Gavril was a purposeful and obstinate young man. He took music lessons and learned to play the piano and the violin. In 1850, he became the leader of the choir. For 20 years this choir held the highest position in our country.

G. Lomakin's fame as a talented choral teacher soon spread all over the northern capital. A lot of schools gave him invitations. At the Smolny Institute he met K.D. Ushinski, the greatest teacher in Russia. At Law School he met the outstanding composer A.N. Serov. Here, Lomakin headed a choir that P.I. Tchaikovsky sang in.

In 1834, G. Lomakin and M. Glinka became friends. Gavril often visited Glinka's family and met his future wife there. Nadezhda Sobolskaya was a close relative of M. Glinka.

In 1862, G. Lomakin and another composer, M. Balakirev, organized the "Free Music School". In this school, Lomakin created a new choir and organized courses for future music teachers. He often helped young singers to master professional skills. A lot of his students became well-known singers and conductors.

G. Lomakin has left us with many great works, which are an important part of Russian art: over 50 songs, romances, and duets. One of his books, "Lomakin's Romances", was published in St. Petersburg.

This book was very popular and was republished several times.

G. Lomakin was the first to start cultivating folk songs. His vocal compositions were performed in the Tchaikovsky Concert Hall, in the Concert Hall of the Russian Music Academy and at the Moscow conservatoire.

Gavril Lomakin dedicated his great talent to the people. He died on May 9, 1885.
