The warm timbre of woodwinds, the clarity of string sound, and the emotional palette of the human voice — in this festive concert marking the 65th anniversary of the Lviv Chamber Orchestra “Academia”, eras, styles, and national images intertwine. The soloists — Sofia Soloviy, Nazarii Pylatiuk, Andrii Karpiak, Jeanne Mikitka, Anton Sopiga, and Petro Dovhan — together with the orchestra, will create a musical space where Gluck’s Don Juan coexists with Skoryk’s Memory, and the dance rhythms of Piazzolla are transformed through the creative lens of the Ukrainian maestro. Under the baton of Ihor Pylatyuk and Arthur Mykytka, each piece will resonate uniquely — with reverence for tradition and inspiration for the new.
The concert’s festive program is not just a retrospective, but a manifesto of a living musical tradition that continues to evolve. Here, Mozart’s aria with its dramatic sincerity is heard alongside Skoryk’s Hutsul Dance, full of Carpathian energy. And the works of contemporary composers — Bohdana Frolyak, William Bolcom, and Richard Galliano — prove that academic music today is open to dialogue with diverse cultures and styles, while remaining emotional and sincere. This is a concert about memory and continuity, about roots and forward movement.
