What is a century? What does a hundred years mean in the infinity of time, during which a pine tree matures and a person, if destined, lives a lifetime, seeing the world change and realising that all that is most essential in it does not disappear and remains unchanged throughout the ages.
What brought us together as a community in 1924, at the first Lithuanian Song Celebration and what will be there a century later, in 2024, when we meet again? Yes, we will be very different, but we will still be the same - the same singing and dancing Lithuania, the same language that unites us, the same culture that nurtures us.
