Sebastian Studnitzky’s project »Memento Odesa« is a modern-classical homage to the city of Odesa and its inhabitants in the midst of the Russian war of aggression. ECHO Jazz and OPUS Klassik prizewinner Sebastian Studnitzky has close ties to Ukraine and has already been invited to perform there on various occasions. In July 2023, he flew to Odesa to record his music in the Philharmonic Hall with the Odesa Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Volodymyr Dikiy. The aim of this recording was to raise awareness and donations for the people of Ukraine by releasing the songs and accompanying music videos.
In March 2024, the 22-piece chamber orchestra of the Odesa Philharmonic Orchestra successfully toured Germany. However, the tour opened in the sold-out Philharmonic Hall in Odesa at a time when Russian drone attacks on the city were causing fear, devastation and suffering almost every night. The following tour in Germany culminated in a concert in the completely sold-out Memorial Church in Berlin. Sebastian Studnitzky’s project also emphasises the responsibility of artists to use their talent and platforms in a meaningful way. The proceeds from the concerts are donated to local aid organisations in Ukraine.
