'President of Ukraine Leonid Kuchma, thanking performers for
   their moving tribute, remarked that while the language of music
   is able to express that which has no words, the depth of shared
   pain and compassion is the universal value that transcends
   nationality and boundaries.  On behalf of the Ukrainian people,
   President Kuchma presented a gift to the people of America --
   the dramatic and soulful ten-foot rendering of eyes on the verge
   of tears, "Eyes of Christ", the work of Ukrainian artist Alexander
   Postupniy.'

Today at Music & Vision, Galina Aleykina's illustrated feature from Kiev
