TATIANA RIABINKINA: No War

TATIANA RIABINKINA: No War Tatiana Riabinkina’s ‘No War’ is a heartfelt response to the invasion of Ukraine by Russian forces. Tatiana, a Russian citizen living in Aotearoa, felt compelled to speak up about the war through her music when her friends back in Russia were unable to do so. Her work quotes an old Ukrainian song. You can hear more about Tatiana’s piece in this RNZ Standing Room Only interview with Lynn Freeman: Members of the New Zealand String Quartet were joined for this performance by Elliot Vaughan (viola). Audio recorded by Thorin Williams and Crispin Hitchings-Anstice with mixing by Kassandra Wang.
