Brilliant appearances at the most famous concert halls, having presented over 1,500 performances, and acclaimed winners of more than 15 of the highest-acknowledged international and national awards, on the stage they reveal an absolutely perfect harmony of voices, each and every time. They are the world-acclaimed boys and youths choir, Dagilėlis.

The collective’s repertoire features a treasure trove of choral music: from sacred works to classical masterpieces, and contemporary pieces written especially for Dagilėlis. For this performance, the choir has selected truly uplifting works – from the brilliant Baroque to contemporary, Celtic-inspired prayer.

The pristine sounds of the choir will be enriched by the crystal-clear soprano voice of Vismantė Vasaitytė-Benkunskienė and Renata Marcinkutė Lesieur’s masterfully handled peal of the organ. United, these artists promise an extravagant start to the cycle. Come and hear it for yourself!

Programme features music by George Frideric Handel, John Rutter, Karl Jenkins and others
