Music & Comics: exploring a music-based graphic narrative

How does music influence image and story? In this lecture-recital, Illia Pokotylo will present Borys Liatoshynsky: A Life in Reflections (2025) — a graphic narrative about the Ukrainian composer that he co-created with visual artist Ihor Tvoronovych. The talk will explore how musical ideas can be reimagined through the visual language of comics, using A Life in Reflections as a central example. The presentation will conclude with a live performance of excerpts from Liatoshynsky’s piano cycle "Reflections," which served as a foundational music piece for the creation of the graphic narrative.
