The Seasons | Augustas Vasiliauskas (saxophone) and Ala Bendoraitienė / Alija Ben (piano)

The concert The Seasons: Reflections and Reminiscences will feature works by Takashi Yoshimatsu, Claude Debussy, Eugène Ysaÿe, Darius Milhaud, Frédéric Chopin, and Julius Andrejevas.

This programme unfolds as a musical journey through the seasons, with each composition reflecting a distinct atmosphere of time and a unique layer of human experience. As Marcel Proust wrote, the past is never truly lost — it endures through sensation, memory, and art. Through music, the listener is invited to experience this voyage of “lost time”: from quiet introspection and the awakening of nature to the fullness of sensation, retrospective reflection, and serenity.

Once connected through the relationship of teacher and student, saxophonist Augustas Vasiliauskas and pianist Ala Bendoraitienė (Alija Ben) now appear together as creative artists and distinguished partners on the concert stage.
