In this piece, I channel my thoughts for all the people who have suffered and are suffering as a result of Russia’s military aggression in Ukraine. Due to unfortunate events, there is an additional dedication to my father, whose soul now flies freely over the seas like a swan. The work is multi-voiced, there is an idea of the beating of the swans’ wings – symbolising beauty, human dignity, strength and greatness, just like Ukrainians today, fighting for their freedom. There are the voices of sirens – symbolising acts against humanity. There is a tune like a lullaby from my home island of Kihnu, symbolising sadness, a song without words to hold the memory of those who have lost their lives due to the Russian aggression. Sláva Ukrayíni! - Elis Hallik Schwierigkeitsgrad: 4
