About this show
Andrii Kymach, the world-famous Ukrainian baritone, returns in Ian McFarlane's annual Edinburgh concert celebrating the day of Ukraine Independence 2026 with his uniquely wonderful voice and stage presence. Accompanied by the rising British star pianist Jâms Coleman, this recital, which contrasts music by the world-famous Ukrainian composer Valentin Sylvestrov with music by other Ukrainian and European composers, promises to be rivetingly memorable. This is the fifth concert in four years promoting Ukraine by McFarlane starring Kymach, with world famous Ukrainian, South Korean and British performers.
