oh, ready, know, welcome to take talk with hackers, paralyzing your societies. computers that out some are you and governments that go crazy for your data. we explain how these technologies work, how they can go for it. but how they can also go terribly, watch it now on youtube. oh, they are torturing people. the thing about lucas jenko is that he never ever forgives o. s duck kind at times no time to kind of us

it's, it's not the time for reflection. so now it's time for action. oh, he writes, a lot of thoughts about her id is home. people survive. she seems. it's church's when coaching, when you both from the hell denotes stuff huh . maggie gamma may not know we are united. there are many of us. we will be victorious. how testers, chance all the members of the bomb, the cor free choir, a bella. bruce are determined, their weapon is music, their battleground is the street. whether in bella, roofs, or in bon, their art is a form of protest. oh, they took part in a popular uprising that swept bella ruth, in 2020 before it was brutally suppressed by dictator alexander lucas shinkel.

oh, conductor vitale, alec, so knock also to pardon me uprising and the bella ruse, him capital minsk. oh, he uses art to fight repression. his message is one of defiance. oh, oh, as this one's a nissan, our mission is to show that that a roof still exists. and there is still a free bella rouge. even if a small line is on mostly an exile, home left is indeed a maple. and many other people who are against the regime against the in warn ukraine seek once were expressed themselves and want to be her title or some on the wrong dakota. and that's why they're here at the beethoven 1st. the frequent concert was held in an unusual place. the plenary chamber and bon once the seat of the west, german parliament, an historic and

a political setting. ah, this year the beethoven fest, turn the spotlight on eastern europe on repression and bella roofs, as well as the war in ukraine. a nation who struggle for survival is being closely followed by the whole world. an advent, that's not only a celebration of music, but a clear statement of support with these countries opposition movements. the question is, how can art survive in times of war and repression? what role can music play in bella, bruce or ukraine? was he conned and could music? can't stop war when parts can be stopped washed up, our body call to art and music can change. people can ment, i think i use it as a medium with which we can reach very many people with him via their for dimension

. and i function as that that was thought of ballasa national, national going after the rigged 2020 elections and ballers after the government crackdown. our musicians wanted to do something i was, was vicki kimball, and they didn't want to be passive of others like lucas. it's her east, as they stood next to the people and thing that it became a national movement in belarus. like if it's an island or yet almost a mover coming at me. i think that music can change the world and that every person can change and then what does needs? harman law, nashikuru, they desert people and ukraine. good to be surrounded by music. ver the. in april, last year, we staged concerts in airway shelters. to comfort little that were frightened, or was rather than the law chronicler de la keith, throughout the lasandra town, on the 2nd, only did the name be sure, alexia sham. britzky and his key faced sophia chamber choir, ripened germany from war torn ukraine. they too are using music to fight for their

country. oh, i the choir was founded in 2007, and quickly became an important part of cultural life and the ukrainian capital. but it sense of identity and purpose has changed since february. oh dr. the my old sir. ah, this yourselves as cultural advisors of ukraine, and i'm not sure you me see a national hot or a senate stickle to no diplomacy. okay. we want musicians from germany and bell roost to now and learn more about you training culture and to distinguish it from russian culture. lucy bit shows nala paul greens, coker taller e or cache. yes, they put awhile over the deceased crew bomb. oh,

a piece this year, each year, the festival commission to work in cooperation with which avella, now the old friends are here to collaborate on a musical mission with . mm, jen pneumonia. she all the intention is on ukraine at the moment that our friends and valor is our non jail and we're thinking about them eve, and it's hard for them because they know what's happening in ukraine, which is awesome. so tan ensure that the, the flu, too much has happened to track down on the popular uprising and belarus, the russian invasion of ukraine. these artists don't want to remain silent. that's also what their project with the beethoven fast is about. was

city and what's an n as an ocean lee? there was no time to really cry and it's i flatter, vaguely, arrogant. this is a line for action us one more stadium. yeah. forget it ceased you have to do something. it reflects on assisted side full tutton. the plenary chamber and bon was once the seat of the buddhist tug, the center and symbol of post war german democracy. what better place for a concert with no global disease stays the of a big but since they can be a team discusses the venue and agree the city makes an interesting change from a concert hall that boomers will differently. yeah. with them, and the ones ecos is, is vicky sash fund and it's very exciting to be in this room that he has offered inside. and you're aware of all the decisions that were made hearing here, vada olive, but everything was decided on a language level and even at and cheating, we were probably the side,

little vinny can shine above it. that will still be using the language back. it is the language of art and you get to make a statement be helped him using the language of art to convey political messages in for a concert featuring choirs from 3 different countries. o . ready ready ready july 2022, warsaw. castle square. reminders of ukraine are everywhere. people are collecting donations for the wars victims. the border to ukraine or wars own is only about a 100 kilometers east. metalli, alexander decided this is a suitable part of eastern europe to get all the musicians together for over herself. ah, so is d as outside of warsaw has now become a symbol of neighborly relations? give all the stuff vase or so i was also the 1st city to be completely overcrowded

with people fling ukrainian gifted and mentioned. and of course, with the consensus totally new situation that all of us here and more so are getting reacquainted and finding on home is here in vazo once warsaw it brings us all together on rush hour found and saw that on there because of the will showcase came already a booklet ukrainian has both an e and an soon t as o u haul. not, not love, hulu live. lindsey is sick my will you move sounds a little bit farther forward towards the tisa less not by me from fall la la la la la la, i skipped evie in grange and knocking the differences between ukraine on and bella ruzen, who's some challenges detected. can't it g, but it's not hard to overcome. the language barriers, metalli, and ukrainian choir director, alexei. some litski. give lessons. 03 choirs have come together here from keith

o fear of the violence and repression in their own country haunts them. the problem is not prison. the problem is if they know him from the choir, they will want me to sell others and they are torturing people. i don't know if my life is in danger, but my health is definitely in danger. i have relatives there and the regime is very upset about us and they want to revenge the terrorizing. not only the protests themselves, but their relatives as well. the thing about lucas sankoh asked that he never, ever forgives. 0, one member who chooses to dispense with the mass has choir director, galena, casimir skia, the regime and bella roost already knows her identity and has detained and interrogated her. she found the choir with like minded singers when unrest for a sweat bella, ruth, and 2020. it's

a mile course. nadine in the plaza when you can kick me to. so for months we talk to the st. louis almost every day. beat it for small but let us gauge the flash mobs and birth mormon to that is you really? so the people in ballers like hear us every day getting what castell at the key quickly we, i'm a well known choir that everybody wanted to hear and everyone loves fellow silver witches. in the study, people started learning our songs. so my sticky, they saw a symbol of the belly ruffian resistance and the for sending us a government came looking for out in the us. they literally hunted us down. oh no. oh, did you shifted with her or was this for her? so for the piece by olga put guys kaya for the beethoven fest, the composer follows progress closely. she herself, is living an exile in warsaw and getting by giving organ concerts and music lessons . she's afraid to return to bella bruce. ah, daniel,
