Italian Cultural Celebration in Odessa
On June 6, Odessa immersed itself in the enchanting atmosphere of Italy!
As part of the «Odessa 365. Multicultural Weeks» program, the municipal enterprise «Parks of Odessa» hosted a festival dedicated to Italian culture week.
The Rotunda in the City Garden was filled with Italian songs, melodies, dance, and inspiration. It was a true musical journey — with the aroma of Neapolitan alleys, the passion of Roman nights, and the ease of Venetian dawns.
The artists of the Odessa Regional Philharmonic named after David Oistrakh — Maksym Krisan, Yuliya But-Husaim, Olena Gryshchuk, Elina Makarenko, and Artem Grahno — delighted the audience with their professionalism, expressive performances, and the elegant sound of Italian music.
Passion and grace were brought by the ballroom dance professionals, bronze medalists of the World Cup — Oleksandr and Natalia Bevzyuk. Soloist of the ensemble «KAZKA» Eleonora Isaieva captivated everyone with the energy of the traditional «Tarantella».
The CLASSIC LADIES ensemble, consisting of Oksana Prokopenko, Ksenia Honcharenko, Daria Bystrytska, and Yevheniya Voyutskaya, enchanted the audience with their skill, exquisite musical taste, and elegance of performance. The host Elvira Palamarchuk guided everyone on a linguistic and cultural journey through Italy — from north to south, through music, words, and mood.
At the end, every viewer and participant received a green gift from the «Green Chef» farm — microgreens with love.
A special thank you to the charity organization «I Will Help» for supporting the event!
We also invite you today — June 7, at 16:00 – to a vibrant event inspired by the atmosphere of Italy at the City Garden, Rotunda.
