Join Ukrainian singer and virtuoso of the bandura, Maryna Krut, for a special evening performance located offsite at Paradiso at 903 Early Street, presented by AMP Concerts. Krut’s compelling, soulful performances evoke both folk traditions and modern sensibilities, with pop and jazz flourishes. The bandura, a stringed instrument unique to Ukraine, has an astonishing 64 strings stretched over a single piece of wood. Krut plays the bass set with her left hand, while the right moves across the prodigious treble array. In addition to being a masterful instrumentalist, Krut’s striking, powerful voice soars in an acoustic setting, whether with a string quartet or solo. 

A Eurovision finalist, Krut often represents Ukraine at official events and performs for soldiers in the current war zone. She has appeared at the Edinburgh International Culture Summit, Andalucia Big Festival, Montreal Ukrainian Festival, and on other international stages.

Krut’s visit and performance at Paradiso are presented in collaboration with MOIFA’s Amidst Cries from the Rubble: Art of Loss and Resilience from Ukraine.
