An addition to the PR1 news about the new Carpathian Concerto recording — Lyniv selected as principal conductor for sessions 12-16 May 2026.
Oksana Lyniv continues her work with NSO Ukraine on the new recording of Myroslav Skoryk's 'Carpathian Concerto' for Naxos World Series (mentioned in our previous issue). Studio sessions take place 12-16 May 2026 at UA Sound studio (Kyiv) under Lyniv's direction — this is her first studio recording of Skoryk. The solo part is performed by Yuliya Shkil (see PR1 #2). Lyniv described the project as 'a rehabilitation of Skoryk in the European context': 'Skoryk is not a "regional composer from the Carpathians," as he was often portrayed during Soviet years. He is part of European post-modernist aesthetics, alongside Lutosławski, Penderecki, Kilar. I want the world to hear this dimension.' The Naxos World Series partnership is part of Lyniv's broader 'Ukrainian Music for Global Audience' initiative. Through 2030 she plans to record 8 albums of Ukrainian academic music from the 20th-21st centuries with NSO Ukraine. Naxos confirmed three follow-up recordings: Lyatoshynsky symphonies, the opera-ballet 'Orpheus' by Hrabovsky, and the piano concerto by Kolessa-Melnyk. All albums will be released in CD format plus digital streaming.
