ROMada is a great ensemble of Roma musicians from all over the world. Noemy has an unusual style and fits perfectly in this group of musicians led by (now Montréaler) Moldavian Sergiu Popa, with Hungary-Toronto (Debi Botos), Vancouver-Bucharest (Leche Carcel), Macedonia (Nizo Alimov & son). Noémy picked up cello at age 5, so she fits in any ensemble, but lately is collaborating with Syrian, Moroccan, Brazilian and gypsy music in addition to jazz. This performance was part of Ashkenaz, one of the best & largest Jewish music festivals in the world.

In 1421, in place of the present Orthodox church, stood a Gothic church, built of stone and brick.
Between 1547 and 1549 the Orthodox Church, founded by the Moldavian hospodar Alexander Lopuszanin, was built there. The church complex consists of the Orthodox church of the Assumption, the belfry (Korniakt tower) and the chapel of the Three Holy Hierarchs.

W 1421 roku, na miejscu obecnej cerkwi, stał gotycki kościół, wzniesiony z kamienia i z cegły.
W latach 1547-1549 zbudowano w tym miejscu cerkiew, którą ufundował hospodar mołdawski Aleksander Łopuszanin, co pozostawiło na stałe ślad w jej nazwie: Cerkiew Wołoska. Zespół cerkiewny składa się z cerkwi Zaśnięcia Matki Bożej, dzwonnicy (wieży Korniakta) i kaplicy Trzech Świętych Hierarchów.
История Бельцкого вино-коньячного комбината берёт своё начало в 1944 году. За годы своей деятельности это знаменитое предприятие стало олицетворением богатейших винодельческих традиций Республики Молдова. В 2000 году на его основе было создано акционерное общество Barza Albă. Сегодня это один из крупнейших производителей алкогольной продукции в регионе.
Бельцы (также Бэлць, молд. Bălți, Бэлць) — второй по величине город в Республике Молдова после Кишинёва.
The church was erected between 1637 and 1639 in the Moldavian capital, in honour of the Three Holy Hierarchs of Eastern Orthodoxy (Basil of Caesarea, Gregory of Nazianzus, and John Chrysostom), and was blessed by Bishop Varlaam.

Have you ever heard of the republic Transnistria (or Pridnestrovie)?
Transnistria is a breakaway territory located mostly on a strip of land between the Dniester River and the eastern Moldovan border to Ukraine. Since its declaration of independence in 1990, and especially after the War of Transnistria in 1992, it is governed as the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (PMR, also known as "Pridnestrovie"), an unrecognized state which claims the territory to the east of the river Dniester, the city of Bender and its surrounding localities located on the west bank. The Republic of Moldova does not recognize the secession and considers territories controlled by the PMR to be part of Moldova's autonomous region of Stînga Nistrului ("Left Bank of the Dniester"). Transnistria's sovereignty is unrecognized by any United Nations member state and it has no diplomatic relations with any of them.

The Annunciation Orthodox monastery in the Moldovita river valley, one of the famous Painted Moldavian Monasteries, was built in 1530's by Petru IV Rares.
Благовещенский православный монастырь в долине р. Молдовица, один из знаменитых Расписных монастырей Молдавии, был построен в 1530-х гг. господарем Петром IV Рарешом.
The Medieval Seat Fortress of Suceava (Romanian: Cetatea Medievală de Scaun a Sucevei or Cetatea Sucevei; German: Sotschen Festung or Festung Suceava) is a fortified castle in the middle-sized town of Suceava, the county seat town of Suceava County, situated in the historical regions of Bukovina and Moldavia, northeastern Romania.
The castle served as the royal seat fortress for the Princes of Moldavia (Romanian: Domnitori or Domni) during the late Middle Ages.
The castle was built during the late 14th century during the reign of Petru Mușat. It was subsequently more fortified in the time of Alexander I and Stephen III (Romanian: Ștefan cel Mare). During the Late Middle Ages, it was part of a system of medieval strongholds built by the Moldavian monarchs in order to withstand the expansionist threat of the Ottoman Empire.
The Castle has never been conquered by its invaders, regardless from where they stemmed.

The Putna monastery is a Romanian Orthodox monastery, one of the most important cultural, religious and artistic centers established in medieval Moldavia; as with many others, it was built and dedicated by Prince Stephen the Great. Putna was founded on the lands perambulated by the Putna (which has its source in the Obcina Mare mountains, Bukovina). Stephen the Great is famous for building and influencing the building of dozens of churches and monasteries all over Moldavia (allegedly, he founded a religious edifice after each important military victory). The Putna Monastery houses the tombs of Stephen —nowadays, a place of pilgrimage —, and several of his family members. The icon veils and tombstones are held as fine examples of Moldavian art in Stephen the Great’s time.
nota: The official German name, die Bukowina, of the province once under Austrian rule (1775–1918), stands for beech tree Buche. Another German name for the region, das Buchenland, mostly used in poetry, means "beech land", or "the land of beech trees", in literary or poetic contexts the name is "the land of beech trees"
During the Middle Ages, the region was the northwestern third of "Upper Country" part of the Moldavian Principality, as opposed to "Lower Country".
The region became the cradle of the Moldavian Principality, and kept its political center until 1564, when its capital was moved from Suceava to Jassy.
Iasi's Palace of Culture is the symbol of the city. Built originally as the princely palace of the Romanian principality of Moldavia, it was completely rebuilt in early XX century to house administrative offices of the city. Since mid-XX century it houses the city's several museums under its roof. A large modern shopping mall was built next to it in XXI century.
Ясский Дворец Культуры - символ города. Построен он был в течение XIX века в качестве дворца господарей Молдавии. В начале ХХ века дворец был расширен и перестроен, в нём разместились административные органы города. С середины ХХ века он стал культурным центром Ясс, здесь под одной крышей разместились музеи города. В XXI веке рядом с ним был построен большой современный торговый центр.

Sucevița Monastery is an Eastern Orthodox convent situated in the Northeastern part of Romania. It is situated near the Suceviţa River, in the village Sucevița, 18 km away from the city of Rădăuţi, Suceava County. It is located in the southern part of the historical region of Bukovina (northwestern Moldavia). It was built in 1585 by Ieremia Movilă, Gheorghe Movilă andSimion Movilă.[1]
The architecture of the church contains both Byzantine and Gothic elements, and some elements typical to other painted churches of northern Moldavia. Both interior and exterior walls are covered by mural paintings, which are of great artistic value and depict biblical episodes from the Old and New Testament. The paintings date from around 1601, which makes Sucevița one of the last monasteries to be decorated in the famous Moldavian style of exterior paintings.
The interior court of the monastic ensemble is almost square (100 by 104 meters) and is surrounded by high (6 m), wide (3 m) walls. There are several other defensive structures within the ensemble, including four towers (one in each corner). Sucevița was a princely residence as well as a fortified monastery. The thick walls today shelter a museum that presents an outstanding collection of historical and art objects. The tomb covers of Ieremia and Simion Movilă – rich portraits embroidered in silver thread – together with ecclesiastical silverware, books and illuminated manuscripts, offer eloquent testimony to Sucevița's importance first as a manuscript workshop, then as a printing center.
In 2010, the monastery has been inscribed by UNESCO on its list of World Heritage Sites, as one of the Painted churches of Moldavia.
The church was erected between 1637 and 1639 in the Moldavian capital, in honour of the Three Holy Hierarchs of Eastern Orthodoxy (Basil of Caesarea, Gregory of Nazianzus, and John Chrysostom), and was blessed by Bishop Varlaam.

The Orthodox Cathedral, also known as the Metropolitan Cathedral, is dedicated to the Three Holy Hierarchs, Basil the Great, Gregory the Theologian and John Chrysostom.
Built on an area of 1,542 m2, it has 11 towers, of which the central one has a height of 90.5 m. The cathedral is listed in the National Register of Historic Monuments. It was constructed between 1936-1956. The architectural style is neo-Moldavian, based on Romanian Orthodox, late Renaissance, Ottoman and Byzantine architecture elements, such as niches under the eaves, ribbed star vaulting in the interior and lacquered discs in a variety of colors. The plan shape of the cathedral is the typical Byzantine one, in the shape of a cross, the interior being divided into narthex, pronaos, naos and altar. (Wikipedia)

In this photograph are my grandfather Boris, my grandmother Galina (Galya), and my mother Lyudmila (Lyuda). The photo was taken in 1959, approximately in the city of Soroki, Moldavian Soviet Repiblic (today it's the Repiblic
of Moldova).
My grandfather Boris came from a family of Polish landowners ("szlachta" in Polish and Ukrainian languages). Before the 1917 Revolution (and the subsequent Civil War of 1917–1921), his family lived in Slobozhanshchyna region (what is now Kharkiv Oblast of Ukraine).
After the Bolsheviks came to power, the family had to flee to Romanian territory, losing all their property (as you may know, the Bolsheviks at that time aimed to physically eliminate the nobility as a class. All property belonging to landowners, merchants, and other propertied classes was confiscated).
In 1940, Stalin annexed part of Romanian territory and established the Moldavian Soviet Republic there, placing my grandfather’s family once again under Bolshevik rule.
During the "Great Patriotic War" (WWII), my grandfather, then (a 13 y.o. or so) teenager, wandered in Besarabia region in search of food. He told me how he: watched dogfights between German and Soviet planes; helped extinguish burning houses (drawing water from a ditch where he had to push aside the floating bodies of dead soldiers); climbed into destroyed tanks left on the battlefield, and how he fired weapons he found —his life was full of vivid experiences during those years.
After the war, Soviet authorities took him off the streets and sent him first to a vocational school and later into military service in the Baltic Fleet, where he served for seven long years.
After leaving the military, he returned to Ukraine and chose a new southern city under construction at the time — Nova Kakhovka in the Kherson region — as his new home. There, he got a job at a machine-building plant and worked as an electrician in the foundry until his retirement. It was at that same factory where he met my grandmother Galya.
He passed away in 2007. We can no longer visit his grave, as the city of Nova Kakhovka has been under Russian occupation since February 24th, 2022.
I know little about my grandmother Galya’s family. They were locals from the Kherson region. One of her ancestors (ironically) fought for the Bolsheviks — he was even a Red Army commander and died in battle during the Civil War of 1917–1921.
Ironically, the descendants of two opposing sides of that war met many decades later and started a family...
As a young woman, my grandmother was actively involved in sports (artistic gymnastics), which helped her maintain excellent health to this day. Also she is an excellent cook, especially when it comes to cakes, pastries, and all kinds of baked goods. Grandma knows many poems by heart as well.
Every summer during school vacations, my brother and I would come and spend time with our grandparents.
Now, the city of my birth and the place of my fondest childhood memories exists only in photographs and in my memories...
