In memory of the fallen soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the innocents killed in the Russian-Ukrainian war
A year of fierce struggle, a year of fateful days and sleepless nights, a year of sad losses, but also… A year of hope and pride for Ukraine and Ukrainians, a year of love and appreciation of everyone nearby and everything we have!
A year of strength, courage, bravery, and, most importantly, faith in Victory!
On the eve of the first anniversary of the full-scale Russian invasion, Lviv National Opera invites you to join the commemoration of the fallen soldiers who defended Ukraine and all the innocent victims whose lives were taken by russia.
The soloists, choir and orchestra of Lviv National Opera will perform Giuseppe Verdi’s “Requiem” – one of the most dramatic compositions of world classics, full of emotions, pain and faith. The program also features the work of the Ukrainian composer Viktoriia Poliova “Bucha. Lacrimosa”, created in memory of the innocent victims who tragically died at the hands of the Russian invaders in Bucha.
The renowned Canadian conductor of Ukrainian origin Keri-Lynn Wilson will conduct the concert. In the summer of 2022, she led the world tour “Ukrainian Freedom Orchestra”, during which Ukrainian musicians performed in the largest cities of Europe and America.
