Through its reflections on the fundamental elements of sound and soul, the Ukrainian world-music quartet DakhaBrakha creates a world of unexpected new music. Founded in 2004 at the Kyiv Center of Contemporary Art by avant-garde theatre director Vladyslav Troitskyi, DakhaBrakha’s theatrical and scenic performances, combined with Ukrainian folk music, create a bright, authentic, and unforgettable musical journey. Drawing on music from around the world, the ensemble brings out unseen potential in Ukrainian melodies.
