Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine and the National Chamber Ensemble "Kyiv Soloists" will hold a classical music open air concert "Night Serenades" dedicated to Ukrainian prisoners, illegally detained by Russian Federation.
They deserve the support of the Ukrainian and international
community, based on the respect for human rights and the rule of law.
The event will be
held on June 19, 2015 on the open square with unique acoustics in front of the
Foreign Ministry of Ukraine between the columns and the facade of the building.
This project is the next step in the process of developing the Foreign Ministry
not only as a governmental office but also as an art venue.
The concert will
start at 21.00. National Chamber Ensemble “Kyiv Soloists” will
present its program “Night Serenades”, which consists of music pieces
dedicated to love, lyrical hymns of love and tenderness.

music of Peter Tchaikovsky, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Antonin Dvorak, Edvard
Grieg, Felix Mendelssohn, Edward Elgar, Fritz Kreisler, Johann Strauss, and
