This autumn, Lithuanian music and theater fans will have the opportunity to experience a new, solemn project, "Gala Stars," which will unite three different worlds of the stage. Singer and actress Oneida Kunsunga, singer Vaida Genytė, and the singer known as the gentleman of the stage, Egidijus Sipavičius, together with a professional string quartet, pianist Giedrius Nakas, and guitarist Kostas Balčiūnas, will present an elegant program in which classical music, old pop melodies, and theatrical aesthetics will intertwine.

The creators of "Gala Stars" promise an evening where not only the music but also the atmosphere will be important; therefore, new arrangements of pieces, refined and subtle scenography, and exceptional costumes are being created specifically for this project, all of which will allow the audience to immerse themselves in a festive, elegance-filled musical journey.

"I wanted to create a concert where different genres of music and theater would meet, but be united by an uplifting, festive emotion. The dramaturgy of the evening is designed so that each performance is an independent experience, and the entire event is like a cohesive, elegant story," says Oneida Kunsunga.

The evening's program will feature classical arias and well-known pop melodies, enriched with string arrangements, sounding in a new way. The entire program is laid out like a musical narrative – from sensitive and nostalgic moments to impressive climaxes.

Vaida Genytė says that the uniqueness of this project lies in the meeting of different performers.

"All three of us are very different, so unexpected musical dialogues are born on stage. It seems to me that this is exactly what makes this program special – each of us brings our own color to it, but together we create one common story," the performer states.

The professional musicians joining the performers will play much more than just an accompanying role. The musical textures created by the string quartet will complement each piece with new colors, while the piano and guitar will add even more dynamics and emotion to the program.

"It is always interesting for me to look for unexpected musical combinations. In this program, a classical sound will meet pop and theatrical elements, so I believe an truly exceptional evening awaits the audience," says Egidijus Sipavičius.
