Neoclassical Folk: Live at Georgia State University

Join composer, pianist, and music director Tar Sahno for a special live performance of Neoclassical Folk at Georgia State University. Organized by the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America (UCCA Georgia) and hosted in partnership with Georgia State University, this exclusive daytime event offers an immersive musical exploration of Ukraine’s profound cultural heritage through a refined neoclassical lens. Drawing from his celebrated concert programs, Sahno pairs acoustic piano, string textures, and traditional Ukrainian motifs to transform ancestral melodies into expansive, contemporary cinematic arrangements. Supported by Brief Me On, this performance is entirely free to students, faculty, and the public, serving as an open cultural bridge and an inspiring showcase of acoustic storytelling.

Whether you are a devoted listener of modern instrumental music or eager to experience the resonance of authentic folk themes reimagined for the modern stage, this one-hour showcase provides an intimate, deeply resonant afternoon of art and unity.
