About Orchestra
New Era Orchesra
New Era Orchesra is a unique Ukrainian orchestra which proves that classical music is and must be
trendy. What they are doing now seemed to be impossible before. For 12 years they have been working
without any government support, collaborating with world superstars. It is love what unites them: love
for music and for Ukraine, because here they live and create, developing Ukrainian culture, setting the
example and giving hope of self-realization to the new generation of artists.
New Era Orchestra reveals to the Ukrainian audience the names of composers who have become benchmarks for
the world of music. They were the first in Ukraine to perform works by John Adams (US), Philip Glass (US),
Michael Nyman (UK), John Tavener (UK), Iannis Xenakis (France), Takashi Yoshimatsu (Japan), Marjan
Mozetich (Canada), Avner Dorman (Israel), Maias Alyamani (Syria), Arturs Maskats (Latvia). New Era
Orchestra actively promotes the best Ukrainian soloists of the new generation: Andrii Pavlov (violin),
