The opera, created in 2020, will open the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival on Friday.
The composer of a Ukrainian opera set in a post-apocalyptic world has said it is an honour to see it featured at a major UK festival.
The opera, which was created in 2020, will open the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival on 18 November.Mr Razumeiko, 33, told the PA news agency from Kyiv: "It's a special story because for two years we tried to speak about some kind of abstract post-apocalypse, which might come in 300 or 700 years.
He said that since the war began, the opera had become a "diplomatic mission" to show Ukraine exists."Our language exists, our culture exists, and it is distinct from Russian culture," he said. "We visited different places in Ukraine and now literally all these places are battlefields and places where Russian war crimes have been committed," Mr Razumeiko said.
