A Night of Music, Poetry, and Surprises for Ukraine
On October 27, 2024, Forte Piano in Paramus, NJ, hosted an unforgettable evening of music and poetry, presented by Michael Rosenblum and Alex Fefer. The duo performed their unique, bi-lingual program, “Vitaly Mamay: Poetry in Songs,” blending Russian and English lyrics. Through this experimental set, they guided the audience through contrasting songwriting styles, from the deeply emotional to the hilariously witty.
The highlight of the night came with a surprise appearance by Evgeniy Bel’tyukov, who captivated the audience with his powerful performance of Ukrainian songs. His heartfelt delivery added another layer of emotion to an already impactful evening.
The concert, aimed at supporting Helping Hands for Ukraine, also served as a reminder of the strength of community. With wine, light refreshments, and a room full of supporters, the event successfully raised funds to aid those in need in Ukraine.
Huge thanks to the Forte Piano company for providing the beautiful venue, and to everyone who attended and contributed to the success of this night. Your support helps us continue to organize meaningful charity events and make a difference.
Stay tuned for future events, as we unite music, poetry, and community for a greater cause!
