Saulius Petreikis: Dreams Like Stars

"Dreams Like Stars" – Saulius Petreikis' festive tour

At the end of the year, multi-instrumentalist Saulius Petreikis and his band invite you to their annual concert tour across Lithuania. The "Dreams Like Stars" program will feature original music, the sounds of ancient world wind instruments, and improvisation.

In Saulius' work, musical traditions from different cultures merge with the band's contemporary sound. A focus on instrument timbres, melody, and rhythm creates music that encompasses both tranquility and movement. Live performance leaves room for spontaneous decisions by the musicians, which is why the pieces sound slightly different at every concert.

"This tour is our annual meeting with the listeners. We prepare the music, we rehearse, but part of the concert is born only on stage: by listening to each other, by reacting to the hall. That live connection is what encourages us to return every year," says Saulius Petreikis. "Dreams Like Stars" is an evening dedicated to music and listening. The concerts are open to both those familiar with Saulius' work and those who want to hear his and the band's music live for the first time.
