Songs for Babyn Yar trailer

In 1941, Nazi occupying forces murdered more than 33,000 Jews in the ravine of Babyn Yar in the suburbs of Kyiv, Ukraine, in just two days. In the following two years of Nazi occupation, Babyn Yar became the site of over 100,000 deaths. Eight decades later, three Ukrainian musicians - Yuriy Gurzhy, Svetlana Kundish and Mariana Sadovska - journey deep into their shared history, drawing on survivors' testimonies, traditional Yiddish and Ukrainian folk songs, poetry, and storytelling to present ‘Songs for Babyn Yar’ - a music theater performance that intimately weaves languages, harmonies, and cultures to reveal the forgotten stories and silenced songs from one of the most devastating periods in Ukraine’s past. Songlines magazine calls it “elegiac and questioning, asking how do we sing about such events, or make art out of it? Important questions, powerfully realised”. A Dash Arts production
