The full-length video of the World Premiere of the Requiem by Ukrainian composer Yevhen Stankovych has just been released. You can find it on the Ukraine Culture Network's YouTube Channel.
The Requiem had its world premiere in Kyiv, at the National Philharmonic of Ukraine, on November 2, 2025. The music and the Requiem's narrative - suffering, death, and the perspective of a better world - deeply touched the audience. Many have lost family members and friends in the ongoing war. The air alarms over Kyiv stayed silent during the premiere - to pick up just as it was over.
The Requiem was performed by the National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine under maestro Volodymyr Sirenko and the National Choral Capella 'Dumka' under artistic director und conductor Eugene Savchuk.
The ‘making of’ the Requiem can be found on the Ukraine Culture Network's YouTube Channel.
The creation of the Requiem was supported by the Ukraine Culture Network.
