Today is the day after a lot of Azovstal defenders were released. These days, people are coming back to Kharkiv region, which is now free from russian troops thanks to brilliant Ukrainian Armed Forces.
This song is about coming back home, meeting familiar places, well-known silence, a dog which stays the same. It's about a safe world left beside warriors, thanks to them. Maybe it's a good idea to listen to it on a train, while driving home.
Eugene Pluzhnyk wrote the poem a hundred years ago, when Ukraine, as a newly formed state, faced severe conditions of a long war and soviet occupation.
It has never been easy to live in Ukraine.
Still, there are hundreds of places that feel like home here.
Polish pianist plays a "silent song of hope" to benefit the people of Ukraine, simultaneously intense, cathartic, and soothing. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 7, 2022
