The photo story “When Music Heals Souls” became the winner of the special nomination “Nine Muses” of the All-Russian competition “OBJECTIVE Charity-2026”.
The winning work captured the brothers Nikita and Timofey Egorov on the stage of the Big Concert Hall of the Krasnoyarsk Philharmonic at the annual concert “The World in Which I Live!” It is conducted by the Krasnoyarsk regional public organization for the support of disabled children (KROOPDI) “SHIELD”, whose partner has been SUEK-Krasnoyarsk JSC for many years.
“'The world I live in!' – this is a space where boundaries are erased, and special children appear on the same stage with the best groups of Krasnoyarsk. And in the hall there are not random spectators, but families who, like the artists themselves, have gone through a long path of rehabilitation, training and faith in their children. That is why the voices of the participants sound especially shrill,” said the concert organizers.
For Nikita and Timofey, who have come a long creative way – from the ShowBiz finale, broadcasts with Andrei Malakhov and performances with Dima Bilan to participation in the First Choir in Crimea, this concert became special in its own way.
“These meetings give not just the joy of creativity. They give faith in themselves, in their strengths, and in the fact that art is accessible to everyone. This is the moment when charity becomes music, and music becomes real salvation,” the organizers note.
By the way, together with the coal miners of KROOPDI “SHIELD” they hold many such meetings: they organize creative master classes, boat trips along the Yenisei with a rich entertainment program, family leisure at the recreation center, New Year's holidays for special children.
You can get acquainted with the photo story “When Music Heals the Soul” and other best works from all over Russia on April 22, 2026 in Moscow, at an exhibition at the Jewish Museum and Tolerance Center, where the Forum-festival #Patron's Day will be held.
It should be noted that the competition “OBJECTIVE CHARITY” has been held within the framework of the Donor Forum project “Development of a culture of partnership: Patron’s Day” with the support of the Presidential Fund for Cultural Initiatives since 2012 and is the only professional photo competition in Russia dedicated to the topic of charity and social responsibility.
