Barynya is a world-renowned group that enjoys exalting stature as the premier Russian folk ensemble outside of Russia. Barynya presents Russian, Cossack, Ukrainian, Jewish and Gypsy Roma traditional dancing, music and songs. As part of its International Music Festival, Musical Bridges Around the World imports the festive troupe for a free performance at the Empire. While all IMF performances are free and open to the public on a first-come, first-served basis, orchestra seats can be secured for a $95 donation at musicalbridges.org.
