    Since the 1986 nuclear disaster, the traditional communities near Chornobyl have been largely dispersed and very few people remain, but one trace remains: songs ethnomusicologist Yevhen Yefremov collected in the region in the '70s and '80s. With New York's Ensemble Hilka, he has prepared a concert program that commemorates and helps the audience to imagine how this lost repertoire used to define the daily lives of people who lived in the villages of the Chornobyl Zone.
