On September 10 at 18:00, the program "Music of Ukrainian Cinema | FueGo Orchestra" will be performed at the Lviv Philharmonic — a chamber concert in the S. Lyudkevych hall, which is perfect for those who love familiar melodies in a live, exquisite instrumental sound. This is the case when you can go on a date, with friends, or even alone — without unnecessary pomp, but with the feeling that the evening will definitely not be empty.
About the Event
This is a concert program from FueGo Orchestra, announced as a musical journey through the pages of Ukrainian cinema. The evening will feature folk songs, recognizable themes from Ukrainian films, and works by composers who have long become part of our cultural memory.
The event is planned at the S. Lyudkevych Concert Hall of the Lviv National Philharmonic at 7 Myroslava Skoryka Street. The official page of the philharmonic states that the concert will take place on 10.09.2026 at 18:00, and tickets cost from 220 to 600 hryvnias.
The program includes musical themes from the films "The Lost Letter", "Red Ruta", "Shchedryk", and "High Pass", as well as songs and compositions by Ihor Shamo, Myroslav Skoryk, Volodymyr Ivasyuk, Stepan Sabadash, Svyatoslav Vakarchuk, and Ukrainian folk songs arranged by FUEGO ORCHESTRA.
Plot and Mood
Formally, this is not a theatrical performance, but a concert, so there is no plot in the classical sense. However, there is a very understandable dramaturgy of the evening: from familiar folk melodies to songs that have long lived separately from films in Ukrainian culture, yet are strongly connected to them.
The mood promises to be nostalgic, warm, and a bit festive. If you want not just to "listen to music", but to remember cinema, voices, eras, and those very melodies that cling to memory, this program has just that effect.
Production
On stage will be Nazariy Platyuk (violin), Serhiy Kurdytskyi (bandoneon), Dmytro Tretyak (double bass), and Petro Dovhan (piano). This lineup suggests that the evening will be not symphonic-scale, but chamber and very intimate in feeling — where each instrument can be heard separately, not just as part of a large mass of sound.
The official description emphasizes the new, exquisite instrumental sound and the original arrangements of FUEGO ORCHESTRA. This seems to be the main attraction of the concert: familiar melodies will be presented not as a museum quote, but as living music that still works on emotion today.
How to Get There, Duration, and Intermissions
The venue is the S. Lyudkevych Concert Hall of the Lviv National Philharmonic, 7 Myroslava Skoryka Street. For Lviv residents, this location is in the city center, so it is convenient to get here both on foot from the central part and by public transport; the philharmonic itself is a well-known landmark in the city.
In external posters for this event, the duration is indicated as 90 minutes. The official page of this event does not directly mention an intermission, so it is more honest to orient oneself to the format of a chamber concert and not expect necessarily a long pause.
Prices and Who It's For
Officially, tickets for this event are priced between 220–600 hryvnias. This is quite a comfortable range for an evening cultural outing, especially if you want to hear recognizable Ukrainian melodies live rather than in a recording.
This concert is well-suited for those who love Ukrainian cinema, chamber music, and concerts without excessive formality. For a date, it’s almost a foolproof option, for meeting friends — too, but if you are expecting a loud show with a lot of stage movement, it may be calmer here than you are used to.
Tips for the Audience
It’s worth arriving at the hall a little earlier to find a seat without haste and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the philharmonic before the first sound. For such an evening, neat smart casual works best: not too formal, but respectful of the space and event.
If you want to make the intermission part of the evening, it’s a good moment for a short walk in the foyer, a conversation about recognizable melodies, and choosing the next concert in the philharmonic's poster. Such programs usually leave a pleasant aftertaste — without strain, but with the feeling that Ukrainian music in cinema still sounds very modern.
So what suits you better for such an evening — a calm daytime show with a soft mood or still an outing to an evening concert with a cup of coffee before or after?
