On 8 June 2026, the concert “An Evening in Memory of Myroslav Skoryk” will honour one of Ukraine’s foremost composers, celebrating a legacy that became part of the nation’s cultural identity.
On 8 June 2026, the concert “An Evening in Memory of Myroslav Skoryk” will take place — a musical tribute to the distinguished Ukrainian composer and People’s Artist of Ukraine (1938–2020). The programme centres on the creative legacy of an artist whose music shaped the face of Ukraine’s academic stage for decades.
At its heart is the celebrated “Melody in A minor,” first heard in the film “High Pass” (1982) and since elevated into a timeless emblem of Ukrainian melodic writing. Other pages of the composer’s output will also sound, including images drawn from the Carpathian musical tradition.
The evening is conceived as a mark of respect for a figure who guided Ukrainian musical life for decades — in composition, teaching and the organisation of cultural affairs. The organisers invite everyone who values the Ukrainian musical tradition to share this evening of shared memory and homage.
