Description
Ahead of their first concert since the start of Russia's invasion, members of the Kyiv Symphony Orchestra voice hope that their music will heal troubled souls and boost Ukrainian culture. For violinist Oleksii Pshenychnikov, their concerts are a "cultural mission", evoking the "cultural front" as another aspect of the war. The men in the orchestra have been granted special dispensation from Ukrainian authorities to leave the country as martial law is in place and fighting age men are not normally allowed to leave.
