- "Music is the only thing that saves you morally and distracts you from what is happening around you. I play in the hope that after this madness is over, I will be ready to participate in the renewal of cultural life in my country" - Rostyslav Holubov, 2023
To all of our disbelief the attack on Ukraine, its people, culture, and music, is still ongoing and there is no end to the unspeakable violence instigated by the invaders.

"Oh, In The Cherry Orchard" is a beautiful Ukrainian folk song that has been popular for generations. The song tells the story of a young girl who finds herself in a cherry orchard, where she reflects on her feelings of love and longing for someone she cannot be with. The melody of the song is haunting and melancholic, evoking a sense of nostalgia and wistfulness.
I had a lovely exchange online with Rostyslav Holubov, a young composer from Ukraine, last year. Rostyslav shared with me his passion for Ukrainian folk music and his approach to arranging it for a contemporary audience. It was difficult at first for him to share his sheet music as he was in Kharkiv and his scores were on a flash drive he couldn't get to anymore. In the end, he had to rewrite the entire piece from memory!
His composition that plays with the song's theme is a testament to his skill as a composer and his deep appreciation for the rich musical traditions of his homeland. The fantasy features a delicate and nuanced interplay between the melody and the accompaniment, with subtle touches that emphasize the song's bittersweet mood.

There is someone impersonating me and replying to comments, it is not me! I have no gifts for anyone! 😅
Your videos are gifts enough. 😊
Your performance of this piece is a huge gift already. Thanks.
@@madcoricon I totally agree!
Other than the gift of music!
yep. I did mention it in the comments of previous videos and ask to everyone to signal this scammer to youtube.
But, to be clear, most of your viewers are quite educated, and will spot this as a scam immediatly ;-)
Someone in the comments wrote that your performances are the real gift. I do agree 100%
For Ukraine!🇺🇦 I’m so excited! And grateful! Thank you very much, Dear Stephanie!🤗❤️
Congratulations and Best Wishes from Athens !
Ukrainian music is a part of the great Russian music.
@@evaminich8085😂😂😂😂😂
@@evaminich8085 Yeah...you are a great example of russian propaganda.
A beautiful piece, beautifully played. Praying for peace in Ukraine.
Such grace and depth. Beautiful piece wonderfully interpreted. Thank you so much for this precious moment, Dear Ms Jones. Peace and Love.
Praying for the people of Ukraine may peace comes soon,beautifully played ❤❤❤
Если бы Запад (США) не вмешивались, - давно бы всё благополучно закончилось, наступил бы мир. Но кровожадный Запад не успокоится, пока вдоволь не нажрется русской и украинской крови.

thank you. thank you so much. I'm following your channel long time. This video is a huge gift for me. Because I like your creativity. Because I like a guitar. Because I am an actor. Because I am an officer of Ukrainian Military Forces now. Thanks a lot. I will dream about peaceful time, about possibility to learning to play guitar. Please play more.
I hope this madness ends soon. Thanks for your music from Argentina.
Good luck Олег. Poland will never leave you alone. Greetings from Poland 🇺🇦❤️🇵🇱
P.S. Maybe „Russia Goodbye” by Verka Serduchka would be a good theme for next Stepane’s fanthasy or variatons ;)
❤️
Beautiful piece of music, the delicacy is highlighted by your playing. Do you know what grade level this is at?
If there is ever a movie made about the events of this war, this MUST be a part of the music!
Thank You dear Stephanie from the bottom of my heart. I am ukrainian and I'm also a classical guitarist and a music teacher. You are incredible. Your playing is out of this world. I'm speechless.
Beautiful work, as always Stephanie. I'm sure the people of Ukraine appreciate it. Best wishes for all Ukrainian people. We, in the US, salute you.
And we, in Poland, salute you. Be strong, my friends!!!

Touches the heart! Beautifully played!
The pathos you convey with this performance is almost phisically painful.
Thank you.

I know of no other person that plays with such pure emotion. Pure pleasure listening to you play.
I love the expressiveness of your phrasing. This is gorgeous.
Thank you for your support and music! Ukraine is here, Odesa is here and listening this beautiful notes!
A wonderful gift for the people of Ukraine. If they ever will hear this, they must appreciate both the music and the interpreter 🏆🏆🏆
Hauntingly beautiful 👏👏❤️☮️
Oh Stephanie that was magic. The music was magnificent, soulful, and inspirational. And I loved the sound of your guitar. Simple gorgeous.
This is wonderful. Beautifully played.
A piece to get lost in.
Дуже дякуємо за підтримку України!Прекрасне виконання,чарівна музика🙂
Thank you for sharing this wonderful piece with us.
Congratulations on your performance, Stephanie!
Amazing job! I’m a sucker for a beautiful song played in that kind of setting.
So beautiful and particularly poignant on this 1st anniversary of the Russian invasion. Thank you,
that was so touching it even moved the stone I call my heart...
Thanks for your support of Ukraine. You are incredible 💕.
I have watched this video about 30 times already. I more I listen the more I like it. Only a few other guitar pieces can evoke so much emotions from me. I think it is going to be a classic alongside pieces such as Romance, Cavatina, Fur Elise, Schinder's List, and the Prelude of Barrio's The Cathedral. Thank you again, Stephanie, for doing this piece justice.
Absolutely beautiful. Very emotional. Thanks for recording this piece :)
Дуже гарно.
Wow! Just wonderful! Congratulations to composer and player!
I'm not sure if it was the composition or your playing, but it was touching. Beautiful.
