You Are Always Nearby

Requiem from Sand

You Are Always Nearby is the defining work and the cornerstone of Simonova's entire career. The story follows a young couple during World War II: the man goes off to war, and the woman stays behind. The piece was performed at the 4th semi-final of Ukraine's Got Talent and it was this performance that made a huge impact on the internet and turned Simonova into an international celebrity.
