A rare and one-of-a-kind evening with the best in Lithuania
Dagilėlis is the best choir of boys and young people in Lithuania. It uniquely combines different styles of music and is distinguished by its emotional performances. The ensemble is highly appreciated and often performs abroad, winning many international competitions. Acting as a singing school, Dagilėlis makes a significant contribution to education in Lithuania and to the education of boys and young people.
The choir prepared a lively festive programme for the Vilnius public. A special highlight of the programme was the choir's performance of the famous "The Lion Sleeps Tonight", which has become a model. The singers expertly imitate the sounds of natural phenomena and jungle inhabitants, and embellish it with tasteful choreography. On YouTube alone, this performance by Dagilėlis has been viewed almost 7 million times.
