Diplomatie culturelle...
La Diplomatie culturelle ou le pouvoir fédérateur de l'art a été le thème de la récente conférence d'Opera Europa à Kiev. La capitale de l'Ukraine avait l'air resplendissante au soleil de printemps, et nos hôtes à l'Opéra national d'Ukraine et au Théâtre national de l'opérette de Kiev nous ont offert un accueil généreux à nos plus de 200 délégués.
L'intention expresse de cette initiative était d'atteindre les théâtres de toute l'Ukraine et de les engager à dialoguer avec le reste de l'Europe. Nous avons été récompensés par une forte présence des théâtres importants de Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv et Odessa, ainsi que de plusieurs théâtres plus petits, et une grande délégation de notre cher membre, le théâtre académique national de Lviv, nommé d'après Solomiya Krushelnytska.

"Dear participants of the Conference!
National Opera of Ukraine took part in this important forum for the first time and sincerely greets everyone who provides cultural diplomacy in the sphere of opera, wishing you success in this essential affair on consolidation of efforts to support musical art, its development and flourishing. For us it is a big honour and responsibility to be one of the theatres united by the international organisation in the sphere of music theatre art. We appreciate you greatly for visiting Ukraine and Opera Europa’s Conference ‘Art which unites’. Meetings, discussions, theme workshops of the Conference were extremely interesting and useful, taking into account perspectives of cultural cooperation and integration to international community and considering art as a bridge in the period of conflicts. We are strongly convinced of the importance of wide international cooperation for contemporary Ukrainian music theatres. High informative level of the programme of the Conference, and reasonable content of discussions focused on result, are evidence of the high status of the Association. We believe that meeting points determined at the communication will result in new interesting art projects soon.
With gratitude and best regards to you from the Ukrainian National Opera team!"

We were glad to receive your letter and, in our turn, we would like to express our gratitude for the opportunity to attend such a representative forum. The conference of the International Association of Opera Europa, which was held in Ukraine for the first time, undoubtedly became a significant cultural event that gathered the representatives of the European and Ukrainian theatre elite in Kiev and became a platform for the
progressive development of theatrical art in the world. We were sure that the information about our theatre – one of the most beautiful opera houses in Europe – could not remain unnoticed!
