The “Disney & Oscar Music” concert transforms Tighina Fortress into a musical fairy tale
The musical notes and charm of childhood stories transformed Tighina Fortress into a scene straight out of a Disney film for one day. The cultural events organised by the Moldovan National Youth Orchestra (MNYO), which have become a tradition at the fortress, were once again held with the support of the EU Confidence Building Measures Programme, implemented by the UNDP.
The concert on 1 June, entitled “Disney & Oscar Music”, was dedicated to families from various localities on both banks of the Nistru River, who gathered at the fortress to enjoy symphonic music.
“The most beautiful thing for me was that people from both sides of the Nistru were there together, enjoying the music and a warm summer evening. It was more than a concert — it was an experience that I will fondly remember,” said Dorina.
“Nostalgia for Disney cartoons brought me to today’s concert. I know that many people don’t like the music in cartoons, but I simply adore it, which is why I came today to hear it live,” said Alexandru.
The first part of the concert included a selection of songs from Disney films, followed by a transition to the soundtrack of Oscar-winning films.
“We as musicians have no nationality and no borders, that’s why our collaboration is so beautiful, and music becomes our communication language,” added Natalia Chirca, a performer from Tiraspol.
“Disney & Oscar Music” is the seventh concert organised by the MNYO with the support of the EU and UNDP. After the restoration and conservation of the fortress in the first stage, carried out with the support of the EU Confidence Building Measures Programme, implemented by UNDP, the tourist potential of the Tighina Fortress has increased even more, with concerts and cultural events organised on the territory of the fortress ensuring its sustainability.
The Confidence Building Measures Programme, funded by the European Union and implemented by UNDP, contributes to strengthening trust between residents on both banks of the Nistru River by involving them in joint development projects.
