Volodymyr Zubytsky is one of the world's most outstanding performers on the bayan, as well as a composer and conductor. Through his virtuosity and the depth of his interpretations he fundamentally changed the perception of the bayan, proving that it is a full concert instrument capable of the most complex academic music.
Zubytsky is not only a brilliant interpreter but also a prolific composer who greatly enriched the bayan repertoire with his own works inspired by Ukrainian folklore (notably Carpathian). A product of the Kyiv school, he made a great international career, touring and teaching in Europe. Zubytsky's work is weighty evidence that the Ukrainian bayan school holds a leading position in the world, and that the bayan itself is a truly Ukrainian concert instrument of the highest level.
