ODE TO JOY

"I was pleased and honored to take part in the project « Ode to Joy » with great people and very talented artists from different countries. Music brings people together. Music is a link between people beyond color, language or culture. Music has no frontiers. As we can see on the video that was shot in different countries, music enhances the beauty of our world but the fantastic nature also enhances the beauty of music. I hope that this wonderful project will help the world realize that we need to take care of our world and that people must keep on working on a better future all together. Let’s be positive and let’s keep the faith."

"Time is the moving image of an immobile eternity. Peace, happiness, human life - that's what we need in this world! The main thing in our life is creativity, and neither quarantine nor other restrictions can prevent self-realization. The coronavirus pandemic has forced everyone to rethink their lifestyle and come to calm and contemplation. And this can become a new stage for those creative teams that are ready to take a non-standard look at the world around them. I am grateful to the participants of the project for believing and filling the great theme, the great Beethoven, with their creativity."

"I am really grateful to my wonderful colleagues, professionals for the great collaboration on video creation. I am proud to be a part of this project and to have the honor to collaborate with such professionals as Taras, Francis, Bernard, Sasha Ivan and all musician of Zhangjiajie Philharmonic Orchestra. Regardless of distance, epidemics, music, friendship and beauty unite us."
