Marko Farion is a Ukrainian bandura player and composer. The bandura, a 55 stringed instrument that comes from a centuries old minstrel tradition, is known as Ukraine’s national instrument. These minstrel-bards were called kobzars, and later, as the instrument developed, bandurists. Farion is also a classically trained bass soloist and he is a widely sought after bandura instructor. He received bandura and vocal training from the late Hryhory Kytasty, the bandura’s pre-eminent composer. He also studied music and voice at Case Western Reserve University and the Cleveland Institute of Music. His accomplishments include performances and recordings with the Ukrainian Bandurist Chorus, the Detroit Concert Choir, the Millennium Choir, and the Detroit Opera Chorus. He has traveled the globe with his bandura giving performances and conducting various workshops and music camps for bandura players. His music has been featured on PBS and the documentary “Baba Babee Skazala” (2018)
