Performing with the Baltic Guitar Quartet and his own ensemble, the guitarist toured all over Europe and Asia. Chris's compositions have won international competitions, they are performed, arranged and recorded by internationally recognized artists. The Belgian-born musician now calls Lithuania his home.After St. The vaults of St. Catherine's Church will feature works for choir and guitar by Chris Ruebens and contemporary Swiss composer Ivo Antognini. "I am happy to present to Lithuanian listeners the still unknown wonderful creator of choral music Ivo Antognini. I invite you to experience the unique world of the composer's choral sound - to enjoy the extremely organic voice control, the reflections of jazz harmony, to admire the wide spectrum of colors of the choral texture", - this is how Vaclovas Augustinas, the artistic director and conductor of the JAUNA MUZIKA choir, the composer of the concert program, responds about this exceptionally talented composer.Let's spend a warm and cozy evening together!
