Original production of Kateryna Australia Tour (2008) 

A folk-opera ballet, Kateryna is broadly based on Taras Shevchenko's ballad of the same name, as well as on Shevchenko's poems "Topolia"(The Willow) and "Haidamaky"(Freebooters). The overture to Kateryna comprises a musical tribute to Taras Shevchenko, who is justifiably revered as the bard of Ukraine.
