Portrait
About this event
Jonas Vozbutas is an accordionist whose musical journey has already taken him to various European stages. He has performed at the Berlin Philharmonic, the Rouen Opera House, the Singer-Polignac Foundation in Paris, and has played on the French national radio channel France Musique. Today, Jonas lives in Paris and studies at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris.
In the program "Portrait," Jonas has compiled music that has been significant to him, reflecting his roots, his life and studies in Paris, and the diverse musical traditions the young performer encounters. Alongside music inspired by Lithuanian folklore, the program features works by G. Frescobaldi, D. Scarlatti, J. S. Bach, Jean-Philippe Rameau, Joseph-Nicolas-Pancrace Royer, J. Brahms, F. Chopin, G. Ligeti, N. Kapustin, G. Aperghis, and M. Richter.
This performance by Jonas Vozbutas at the Muzikos magijos klubas is part of the "RE:TURN" project. The project is partially funded by the Vilnius City Municipality. Information partners: LRT, VilniusFM.lt.
RE:TURN is a project by the Muzikos magijos klubas designed to integrate professional Lithuanian musicians who currently live abroad or have recently returned to Lithuania into the cultural orbit of Vilnius. These are musicians who often have significant achievements on the international stage and are well-known in other countries, but do not yet have enough opportunities to perform frequently in their homeland. This cycle aims to provide them with the conditions to take their rightful place among colleagues in Lithuanian musical life and earn the recognition of Vilnius music lovers.
