Lviv National Philharmonic

This week on SymphonyCast, in the medieval city of Lviv on Ukraine’s western border with Poland, an orchestra dares to do the unthinkable: carry a message of hope across the world during a period of war and instability. The ensemble's resilience stands as a testament to its determination and the timelessness of the great works it performs with vigor, distinction and artistry. The ensemble is led by the dynamic Ukrainian-American conductor Theodore Kuchar. Listen now with host Steve Seel to the Lviv National Philharmonic, live from Athens.
