Kyiv Sky

About this track
Music Expedition No. 10. “Kyiv Sky” explores an experimental blend of avant-garde, alternative and neo-classical music, built around the sound of symphonic instruments and shaped into a contemporary musical language. The song reflects on the sky above Kyiv. Today, that sky carries more than clouds and light: bombs and missiles cross it, flashes break the darkness, and the ground can tremble beneath the city. Yet the song deliberately looks beyond the destruction. Performed in Ukrainian, it follows a narrator who keeps watching the sky and finding beauty in it. He wonders what will come from above, but chooses to believe that the sky will protect him, that it stands on the side of good, and that light will return. Many thanks to my dear friend Anna Dolmatova for the cover photo.
