It was an incredibly heartfelt, poignant, and truly magnificent concert
An anniversary evening dedicated to the 80th birthday of Yuriy Yevgenyevich Rybchinsky — a man who became the pulse of Ukrainian culture. Hero of Ukraine. People’s Artist. National Legend.
Having the opportunity to work alongside the man who created the history of Ukrainian song is not just an honor, it is a rare privilege.
We live at a frantic pace, where we don’t always have time to stop and thank those who truly deserve it today. Not sometime. Not in our memories. But now. While they are still with us. That is why this evening became more than a concert — it became an act of gratitude, living memory, and deep love.
Looking back
We would like to thank Katya Tsaryk for her direction, which combined elegance and depth.
Dmytro Saratsky for being the musical heart of this evening.
And, of course, our boundless gratitude goes to all the artists who took to the stage this evening. For your love, respect, dedication, and inspiration. For responding, for singing sincerely, for making this concert a great celebration.
Special thanks to Oleksandra Ivanivna, Yuriy Yevgenovych's wife, for her presence, strength, and support. And to Yevhen Rybchynskyi for his warmth, faith, and help, which gave this event special meaning.The team at the Ukraine Palace
