Listen to this article Loading audio...On 26 March, air raid sirens prematurely ended an outdoor concert in Lviv, Ukraine shortly before the city was struck by missiles. A large crowd had gathered to watch the open-air performance taking place outside the Lviv Opera House in the western Ukrainian city. The blast of the air raid siren interrupted the final few chords of Lysenko’s ‘Prayer for Ukraine’, a piece which has been performed around the world in solidarity with the country. This air raid siren was just twenty seconds, while we’ve been listening to this for hours, days and weeks.
