Kirill Petrenko, Chief Conductor of the Berliner Philharmoniker and the winner of Denmark's prestigious Léonie Sonning Music Prize, will donate the entire prize money - DKK 1 million (€134,000) - to organizations supporting Ukraine.
"For me, especially as a Russian-born artist, it's really completely shocking that all these wars are going on, particularly now in Ukraine, where people are still trying to live their lives while protecting and defending their sovereignty and their future.
That's why I made the decision to donate the money to different organizations that are supporting Ukraine, particularly those helping children who lost their families during the war, and also to some organizations that are trying to restore cultural sites in Ukraine destroyed by the war - churches, orphanages, and other cultural facilities.
I think this is what is desperately needed right now," Kirill Petrenko said.
Thank you for standing with Ukraine!

Un cristiano copto egipcio explica cómo Egipto se convirtió al islam:
"Somos uno de los primeros cristianos del mundo. El islam se impuso por la espada.
Mataron a los hombres, violaron a las mujeres y esclavizaron a los niños.
Egipto pasó del 0% al 90% de musulmanes. El Islam es un culto al sexo, la perversión y la violencia."
