On November 5, 2025, an event took place in the Great Hall of Odesa National Academy of Music named after A. V. Nezhdanova, which once again testified to the high level of artistic training of our applicants. The mixed student choir of the Educational and Scientific Institute of Musical and Performing Arts and Socio-Cultural Practices - one of the leading creative groups of Ushynsky University, which is the pride of the institute and the long-standing bearer of the institution's choral traditions - became a bright participant in the festival concert "Choir Stained Glass" within the framework of the VI All-Ukrainian Festival-Competition of Choir Groups in Memory of                           K.K. Pigrov. Such famous choral groups of Odesa as the People's Municipal Choir "Boyovi podrugy" and "Fierlekh" took part in the concert; exemplary children's choirs "Kantilena" and "Allegro", which represented the Odesa Choir School named after S. K. Kryzhanovsky and the Odesa School of Arts No. 2 named after O. K. Glazunov; the choir "Kamerton" of the art school No. 5. The audience was sincerely delighted by the performance of the choir "RedRock" of the private singing studio, which is successfully led by a master's student of the National Institute of Music and Dramatic Arts - Valeria Medvetska. The performance of the student choir of Ushynsky University under the direction of Natalia Hetmanets with the concertmaster's accompaniment of Natalia Zaporozhets became a powerful final chord, demonstrating a high level of vocal culture, emotional depth and the ability of the collective to successfully perform the most complex works of choral literature, which will worthily represent the University on the art stages of the country and the world.

We warmly congratulate our student choir and its leaders! We are proud of your success and wish the team inexhaustible energy, new heights in skill, creative ups and resounding triumphs on the international stage!
