The concert of modern academic music will feature works by well-known Lithuanian composers Osvaldas Balakauskas, Algirdas Martinaitis, Giedrius Svilainis and Vaida Striaupaitė-Beinarienė, arranged for national instruments. Some works will surprise you with modern-sounding folklore, contractual motifs and variations. Elsewhere we will hear contrasting, modern serial or modal music techniques, and still other works will return archaic baltic symbols reminding of our identity and pagan roots.
