The legendary Ukrainian band DakhaBrakha presents a folk session — an evening of authentic folk music reimagined by the world-renowned quartet.
On July 18, a folk session will take place featuring DakhaBrakha — one of the most acclaimed Ukrainian bands on the world stage. The Kyiv quartet, which grew out of the artistic milieu of the Dakh theatre, has long been a cultural ambassador of Ukraine, presenting the authentic Ukrainian folk tradition at the world's largest festivals.
The session format is a more intimate, live evening in which the musicians return to the very roots of the country's song heritage. Listeners will hear how ancient Ukrainian melodies come alive in the band's distinctive sound, blending rich polyphony, ritual motifs, and an inimitable rhythmic energy.
DakhaBrakha are known for an approach they themselves call "ethno-chaos": they reimagine Ukrainian folk music, weaving in global rhythms and instruments. This session is a chance to hear the living breath of the Ukrainian tradition in a form that is renewed yet deeply rooted.
The event promises to be a vivid gathering for everyone who values Ukrainian culture and a contemporary reading of folklore. Programme details will be confirmed closer to the date.
