There is music that never loses its lightness. There are songs that speak simply – about life, love, everyday life, and joy. This is the music of Benjaminas Gorbulskis.
The program "Life is Wonderful" invites you on a witty and lively journey through Lithuanian variety music, where humor, melody, and stage play meet. This is music "with stories" – sometimes ironic, sometimes lyrical, but always relatable. Songs that many remember from the repertoires of legendary Lithuanian variety performers have been brought back to the stage – melodies that travel from generation to generation and still sound as if they were written today.
Benjaminas Gorbulskis loved the stage, the audience, and live interaction. This program is like a theater of his life, where vivid characters, unexpected musical turns, and good spirits revolve.
