In memory of a great Ukrainian female composer--Hanna Havrylets (1958–2022) Today’s broadcast is a special tribute prepared for International Women's Day. It is a day that celebrates solidarity, creativity, and the strength of women supporting women. In this spirit, our program honors the life and legacy of Hanna Havrylets (1958–2022), one of Ukraine’s most significant composers, whose music continues to inspire audiences worldwide. Maestra Hanna Havrylets was originally on my list of interview guests. Sadly, she passed away on February 27, 2022, from an aneurysm. It was the third day of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Because of the war, she could not receive timely medical care. Her music has now become our eternal memory. In the final minutes of this program, let us together commemorate this towering Ukrainian female composer of the 21st century. I invited 11 Ukrainian female composers to shared about Maestra Havrylets in this episode. To them she was a beloved composer and teacher, remembered with admiration, longing, and sorrow. Through their voices, we hear how Havrylets influenced colleagues, students, and the wider Ukrainian musical community, and how her legacy continues to resonate among women composers today.
