S O D N A S

S O D N A S

Planted by our ancestors, nurtured and cared for, protected from evil spirits and calamities, and handed down to us by our ancestors, the S O D N A S is a spring concert... A place of diligence, patience, love and respite. It is peaceful and lovely, and its flowers are like human stories. When you are calm in the garden, a sense of the world and of time comes over you. The blossoms and fruits of a young person discover a connection with their ancestral roots.

We invite everyone to come to our GARDEN - it will feature works by composers Vidmantas Bartulis, Jurgis Juozapaitis, Giedrius Svilainis, Vaclovas Augustinas, Gintautas Venislovas, Donatas Zakaras, Romualdas Gražinis and Rytas Svilainis, arrangements of folk songs by choir director Dovilė Mačiukaitė-Krasauskienė, choir member Viktorija Vansevičiūtė, we will see works by Tamara Kalibataitė, Alfredas Kondratavičius, Aušra Krasauskaitė, Edita Stundytė, and the choir director Albertas Švelginas  choreographies.
