On April 4, a concert featuring first-year students from the Professional College of the R.M. Glière Kyiv Municipal Academy of Music took place at the concert hall of the H. Zhukovskyi Children’s School of Arts No. 6. The event was organized by the team at the “Educational Initiatives Foundation” to mark April Fools’ Day and Vitamin C Day.
To the enthusiastic applause of the audience, top-performing students—Yelyzaveta Vashchenko, Oleksandra Zakharchenko, and Albina Zubarieva—presented a program featuring world-renowned works:
— Johann Sebastian Bach, Prelude in F-sharp major, No. 13 (from *The Well-Tempered Clavier*, Book I)
— Zhanna Kolodub, “The Snow Queen”
— Oleksandr Bilash, “Hutsul Pysanka” (Hutsul Easter Egg)
— Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Rondo in D major, K. 485
— Johann Sebastian Bach, Prelude in C minor, No. 2 (from *The Well-Tempered Clavier*, Book II)
— Carl Czerny, Etude No. 17, Op. 740
— Sergei Bortkiewicz, Prelude No. 7, Op. 33
— Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Sonata in B-flat major, K. 358
— Johann Sebastian Bach, “Badinerie” (The Joke) from Orchestral Suite No. 2 in B minor
A highlight of the concert was a four-hand performance of works by Mozart and Bach, featuring student Oleksandra Zakharchenko alongside her teacher, Karina Mikaelian—herself a graduate of the Professional College of the R.M. Glière Kyiv Municipal Academy of Music. Each member of the audience took away not only a wonderful concert experience but also useful gifts from our Foundation.
