Kurbasy: Songs of the Ukrainian Forest

Affirmation in a time of violence and resistance: Kurbasy channels contemporary connections to an archaic past with its time-bending Songs of the Ukrainian Forest.

The idea of culture as a cosmic living organism is central to Kurbasy, whose folk-based multimedia performances vibrate in tight vocal harmonies, resonant lyrics, distinctive instrumentation, and dreamlike visual imagery. Kurbasy’s sonic-theatrical explorations of Ukraine’s rich trove of songs, lullabies, and legends conjure beliefs and rituals, channeling contemporary connections to an archaic past.
