Annabel Soode and Havryil Sydoryk present a collaborative programme featuring music that resonates deeply with them. A year has passed since their journey began on the television series Stars of the Classics, and in that time, these emerging artists have achieved more than one might expect. 

Annabel is currently pursuing studies at both the Hanns Eisler School of Music Berlin and the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre. This coming autumn, she joins the Dutch National Opera Studio, a significant milestone in any vocalist's professional path. 

Havryil Sydoryk, winner of the "Klassikatäht 2025" competition, is a versatile 16-year-old Ukrainian pianist and composer. Currently studying at the Tallinn School of Music and Ballet, his instrumental training encompasses the piano, harpsichord, and violin, alongside a dedicated focus on composition. 

He began his piano studies at age six, venturing into composition just two years later. His prolific output already includes over 300 works, ranging from solo piano pieces to chamber and concert music. Beyond his contemporary creative pursuits, he is deeply drawn to early music, harpsichord performance, and baroque ensembles.

Despite his youth, Havryil has distinguished himself through profound musicality, artistic creativity, and a mature stage presence. Throughout his season on "Klassikatähed", his performances resonated strongly with both the jury and the audience, earning him the title alongside several special prizes.
