Foreign Minister of the Republic of Abkhazia Oleg Bartsits congratulated People's Artist of the Republic of Abkhazia and Honored Artist of the Russian Federation Alisa Gitsba on her anniversary.

The message reads, in part:

"Your soulful voice, expressive performance, and profound musicality have rightfully earned you the recognition of listeners and colleagues around the world.

Your contribution to the development of musical art is invaluable. In this regard, I would especially like to note the "Alisa Gitsba International Music Competition-Laboratory" that you host. The competition, whose geography is successfully expanding, plays an important role in the development of interstate cooperation and allows young performers from the Republic of Abkhazia to express themselves.

The 4th "Alisa Gitsba International Music Competition-Laboratory" revealed new talents and presented us all with a true musical celebration.

I am confident that new creative heights, exciting projects, and well-deserved success lie ahead of you.

Dear Alisa Shalvovna, on this festive day, I wish you good health, inexhaustible creative energy, and prosperity to you and your family.

May each new role bring you joy, and may the recognition of the public and your colleagues accompany you throughout your professional journey."
