About this event

We invite fans of Lithuanian folk instrumental music to the launch of the CD "Kauno miesto tradiciniai muzikantai"! Since 1999, the Lithuanian National Culture Centre, in cooperation with the country's municipalities, has been publishing the audio series "Lietuvių liaudies instrumentinė muzika" (Lithuanian Folk Instrumental Music), dedicated to the preservation and presentation of traditional instrumental music. The CD "Kauno miesto tradiciniai muzikantai" (Traditional Musicians of Kaunas City), prepared in collaboration with the Kaunas Cultural Centre, has become a part of this series. During the event, traditional melodies of Kaunas musicians will be played, revealed through the sounds of various Lithuanian folk instruments and the musical traditions of the performers. The event will feature: * Vidmantas Paleckis and Jokūbas Goscevičius; * Vilius Marma; * Giedrius Bagdonas; * Deimantas Makrickas; * Tomas Bendikas; * Arnas Matusevičius; * Regimantas Ramanauskas; * Gvidas Kovėra; * Andrius Morkūnas; * Julija Morkūnaitė; * Virginijus Meškinis; * The instrumental group of the Vilnius University Kaunas Faculty folklore ensemble "Uosinta": leader Auksuolė Janina Šuliokienė, Justas Morkeliūnas, Austėja Alminaitė. The event will also be attended by Arūnas Lunys, a specialist in instrumental folklore at the Ethnic Culture Department of the Lithuanian National Culture Centre and the compiler of the publication. We invite you to get to know the traditional musicians of Kaunas city, hear live instrumental folklore, and celebrate the living tradition of Lithuanian music together!
