SUMMARY:DakhaBrakha
DESCRIPTION:DakhaBrakha is a groundbreaking quartet from Kyiv\, Ukraine\, renowned for weaving traditional Ukrainian folk music with global influences to create a bold\, unmistakable sound. As musicians\, storytellers\, and cultural ambassadors\, they transcend performance—using their art to educate\, inspire\, and connect. \nTheir name\, meaning “give/take” in Old Ukrainian\, reflects a dynamic exchange at the heart of their music. DakhaBrakha embodies a modern Ukraine that is both deeply rooted in its pre-colonial heritage and shaped by its post-Soviet evolution. Drawing from a rich collage of international sounds\, they craft a vibrant\, contemporary musical language that resonates across borders. \nThrough their work\, DakhaBrakha invites audiences to experience Ukraine not as a single story\, but as a diverse\, cosmopolitan culture—one that absorbs\, transforms\, and contributes to the global artistic landscape. \n“The group mixes everything from punk-pop to traditional Ukrainian songs in cool yet beguiling textures\, often with the close harmonies usually associated with Balkan music. But it’s really the live shows that take DakhaBrakha beyond mere curiosity to utter brilliance.”—NPR

SUMMARY:J.S. Bach’s St. Matthew Passion
DESCRIPTION:For more than 60 years\, the Monteverdi Choir has been celebrated as one of the world’s most distinguished and influential choral ensembles. Renowned for its exceptional technique and commitment to historically informed performance\, the choir brings striking clarity\, immediacy\, and dramatic intensity to every appearance. The English Baroque Soloists\, among the U.K.’s most revered periodinstrument ensembles\, are equally acclaimed for their innovation and for continually reshaping audiences’ expectations of Baroque performance. Founded by Sir John Eliot Gardiner\, both ensembles have earned international recognition and numerous awards for their artistry and scholarship. \nIn their UGA Presents debut\, these legendary forces take on J.S. Bach’s St. Matthew Passion—a monumental sacred oratorio of profound emotional depth and one of the most ambitious and transcendent choral works ever written. \n“They are truly one of the finest choirs of their time.”—Bachtrack \nPlease make note of the early start time of this performance.

SUMMARY:Paragon Ragtime Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:Step into the early 1900s\, when electricity dazzles\, cars roar to life\, airplanes lift off\, and vaudeville stars are born. Scott Joplin’s irresistible rhythms steal the spotlight in this lively\, one-of-a-kind concert experience in which conductor and pianist Rick Benjamin and his orchestra journey through the nation’s musical roots. Featuring gems by Joplin\, Joseph F. Lamb\, James Scott\, George Botsford\, May Aufderheide\, and Kerry Mills\, this popular slice of Americana brings the music of a bygone era close to home once again. \nPart of American Panorama: Voices of a Nation at 250 \n“Hearing this music\, performed in this setting\, by these people\, is not something you can capture on YouTube\, or even on an album played at home on a good stereo. The experience requires being in the room\, focusing on the stage and its surroundings with eyes\, ears\, and occasionally a tapping foot\, feeling it rawly and cementing it into memory.”—The Syncopated Times
