Behind the Scenes of "Every Third": A Belarusian Requiem's Journey to the Stage

The Great Patriotic War is a sensitive topic in Belarus. The concert-requiem "Every Third" commemorates this period. This video offers a glimpse into the preparations for this important event. Lera Bernatovich, a participant, describes the extensive rehearsals, the careful selection of Belarusian songs, and the meticulous choice of costumes for each performer. "The preparation was significant," Bernatovich explains, "we had many rehearsals, and each costume was chosen very carefully, for each song." Artem Skorol adds that the concert is designed as a unified narrative, avoiding abrupt transitions to maintain emotional impact. The event's significance and the detailed account of its preparation make it newsworthy.
