Watch: BBC editor’s life in Russia since 2022… on piano

Since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the BBC’s Russia Editor Steve Rosenberg has been composing a piece for the piano that charts the dramatic events unfolding around him.

In rare moments away from work in Moscow, Steve wrote music to express what he was experiencing in a country transformed by the war it started.

Here is Steve to play us, and tell us, about a composition born of the disharmony in his daily life.
