About the event
Dear friends! I would like to present to your attention a video recording of the performance of one of my choral compositions.
I met the choral conductor Jessica Pierpont in 2022, after the terrorist state of russia launched a full-scale war against my country, Ukraine. In this difficult time for all Ukrainians, many musicians from other countries wanted to express their support for us by wanting to perform the music of Ukrainian composers. Jessica was among them. Under her direction, my piece for the women's choir "My Voice to the Lord" was brilliantly performed. Jessica, Sofia Yatsyuk, Marian Guay, and the McGill Doctoral Recital Choir's performance was a rare combination of professional skill and depth of feeling and emotion, which always touches the listeners to the depths of their souls! Jessica is not only a wonderful musician, but also an amazing person, always ready to help. I wish her great creative success and will always be glad to continue our creative collaboration!
