On February 20, 2020, the Kiev Symphony Chorus (director Viktoriia Konchakovska) gave a remarkably stellar and impassioned presentation of Requiem for Peace at the illustrious National Philharmonic of Ukraine. The occasion was Remembrance Day of the Heavenly Hundred Heroes; for those who died during the Revolution of Dignity in 2014. (The Euromaidan movement turned into the 2014 Ukrainian revolution which resulted in the removal of the Yanukovych government).
