KIEV, Aug. 1 -- International music festival-competition ART & MORE held in Kiev between July 29 and 31 brought together young Ukrainian and Chinese musicians.

The event was designed to support young musicians, improve the teachers' skills and to strengthen international cooperation in the music field.

Ekaterina Morozova, one of the organizers, spoke highly about the cooperation with China in holding the event.

"We are very interested in cooperating with the Chinese side because our teachers and students are very much interested in the East. Some even plan to go to study in China. Therefore, there is such a strong exchange, students come here from China, our students plan to go to China. In this way we study (each other's) culture, it's an exchange," noted Morozova.

The event attracted six young Chinese participants this year, during which they received recognitions for their musical talents.

Chinese singer Zheng Hongbin, pianists Chen Xingru and Hou Qingyang receiving the first nomination in the competition, and violinists Bai Jinhua and Zhao Wanchi receiving the third nomination.

"The skill level of the other contestants is very high. I learned a lot," said Bai, who was on his third visit to Kiev.

"It was interesting for me to see the level of the Chinese musicians, to get to know them. These are both interesting contacts and an opportunity to learn their level," said Rodion Morozov, who is also one of the participants of the competition.
