Dear friends! I want to share with you a recording of the premiere performance of my piece "Come, Holy Spirit" for the mixed SSAATB a cappella choir on canonical texts. I composed it at the request of the Singakademie Dresden and the conductor Michael Käppler, as a musical commentary to the motet BWV 226 "Der Geist hilft uns'rer Schwachheit auf" by J.S.Bach. The premiere of the piece took place on April 14, 2024 in Germany, in the Loschwitzer Kirche, performed by the Großer Chor der Singakademie Dresden under the direction of conductor Michael Käppler. I thank my performers endlessly for such a sincere and beautiful performance, for supporting Ukraine and Ukrainians, and for ordering me this work! Dedicated to the living, the dead and the unborn victims of the war in Ukraine...
