The Ukrainian Freedom Orchestra will perform an open-air concert in the gardens of Schönhausen Palace in Berlin. During the event, works by Ukrainian composers will be played, including the Second Violin Concerto by Yevhen Stankovych and "Melody" by Myroslav Skoryk.

The German Embassy in Ukraine announced this on their Facebook page.

The concert will begin with an overture from Giuseppe Verdi's opera "La forza del destino" (The Force of Destiny). The musicians will also perform Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, specifically the part that serves as the anthem of the European Union. The lyrics written by Friedrich Schiller will be sung in the Ukrainian language. The performance of the Ninth Symphony by the ensemble will start with the call "Glory" instead of the usual "Joy" (Freude).
