Watch: Ukrainian musicians perform in subway shelter as part of the annual Kharkiv Music Festival
The music festival began on Saturday.
Kharkiv Music Fest - one of the best international classical music festivals in Ukraine was scheduled to start on March 26. No one could have imagined that instead there would be a concert in the subway. But here we are on the day 31 of the war. pic.twitter.com/1uyzHhGeId

Today marks the opening day of the #Kharkiv Music Festival & the people of Ukraine's 2nd city weren't going to let Russian bombs stop them.
