“I have some sad news. Due to my illness, we’ve had to postpone the concert with the symphony orchestra. Over the years on stage, I’ve had to perform while not feeling well on more than one occasion, but this time the illness has sapped all my strength,” Kharchyshyn said.

“I’m missing a couple of organs. I’m still able to go on stage and do my best. When I can’t anymore, I won’t go on stage—I’ll stay in the studio and write songs. Record them, and maybe someone else will sing them,” Kharchyshyn said.
