Kyiv Classic Duo Final UK Concert - UKby Harley Jones |
26th July 2010 was a great night meeting for the Black Country Accordion & Music Club. Featured were the Dynamic Kyiv Classic Duo who ended their UK tour with an amazing performance. We were aware of their growing popularity but were quite overwhelmed by the onslaught of their followers. They just poured in until we were almost reduced to standing room only. The Duo began with a few popular classics and the expression and feeling that they put into their playing was felt by a very still and silent audience. Almost every other number was received with a standing ovation. This was music at its' very best. Oleksiy Kolomoiets and Igor Sayenko returned in style with music from Carmen. They completed the evening with a selection of popular tunes but their version of the Flight of the Bumblebee brought a standing ovation once again. These two musicians are wonderful ambassadors to the accordion world. They are raising money for the children affected by the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. Hippokrat is a society of mothers and disabled children in the Chernov region of the Ukraine. |
