Students of music schools today are little warriors of light who, even in difficult times, do not abandon art.

The path of those who were forced to leave their homes but did not abandon their calling is especially moving. Teacher Margarita Dmitrievna Poleva is exactly such a person. She does not just teach - she inspires, supports, and protects the first steps of her students in the magical world of violin art.

Under her sensitive guidance, young talents are being revealed - Chumakova Elizaveta and Dudnik Dana. Their first stage steps are confident!

A student of the "Siverskodonetsk Music School No. 1" Chumakova Elizaveta (2nd grade, violin) received a diploma of the laureate of the 1st prize of the 1st International two-round multi-genre festival-competition of arts "Magic Art" dedicated to the birthday of Lesya Ukrainka in the nomination "Instrumental art. Stringed and bowed instruments" and won 1st place at the International festival-competition KYIV–TORONTO 2026.

Two students worthily represented their school at the III International Art Competition "TARASOVI VYTOKI", held in Kyiv, and won honorary awards:

First Prize Winner — Chumakova Elizaveta

Second Prize Winner — Dudnyk Dana

We are proud of our teachers and their talented students! We wish to conquer new heights
