The "Divine Concert": Kyiv-Classic honored medical workers in St. Sophia's Cathedral
On June 19, 2022, a spiritual and artistic event "Musical Prayer for Ukrainian Medics" took place in Kyiv on the occasion of the Day of the Medical Worker.
"Musical Prayer for Ukrainian Medics" provided an opportunity for the artists of the Kyiv Classic Orchestra and the "Credo" choir to realize their artistic talent in such trying times, and also fulfilled an important social mission.
The concert became symbolic gratitude to healthcare workers, nurses, and paramedics who are now in challenging times. For the third year in a row, they selflessly save Ukrainians - first from COVID-19, and starting from February 24 - from the consequences of military aggression.
The Saint Sophia Cathedral was chosen as a special place for the event. It is a shrine not only of the Ukrainian people but also a monument to the cultural heritage of humankind.
