Rediscovering Thomas “Foma” de Hartmann

The work of Ukrainian-born composer, Thomas “Foma” de Hartmann, spans classical, folk, and avant-garde styles, making him a key figure in both Ukrainian music history and the broader 20th-century classical tradition. His early music reflects Romantic influences, while his later works incorporate Impressionist elements and diverse styles, including Eastern melodies, as seen in his notable symphonies and concerti. De Hartmann’s compositions ultimately reflect his quest for meaning, engaging listeners with their depth and variety.
