Everything Is Asleep: Performed by Linnéa Villén & Allan Sjølin
“Kyiv," composed by rising star @mortenjessen, has already garnered a Silver Medal at the Global Music Awards 2024. Inspired by the resilience and spirit of Ukraine, we were driven to create a music video at Volodymyrska Hill, a central and iconic location in Kyiv. The city, deeply affected by daily bombings over the past three years, stands as a testament to enduring strength and hope.
The video aims to capture the profound essence of the piece—a tribute to solidarity and hope. Beautifully performed by @nataliagordeyeva on violin and @vpviolina on piano, the music is both deeply emotional and hauntingly pure. Not to mention the exceptional camerawork by Maks Busel, which brings the vision to life.
