Reports: Kyiv Symphony seeks German asylum

Reports: Kyiv Symphony seeks German asylum

We are receiving conflicting reports on the state of the Kyiv Symphony Orchestra.

One is that it has taken three-year residency in a small German town, Monheim am Rhein.

Another is that it has sought permanent exile.

Some of the male players are said to fear frontline conscription if they return home.

In the absence of firsthand information, all reports must be treated with extreme caution.
