The Vilnius carillon<\/span><\/span>, operated by the Dominican friars, has become an important part of the city\u2019s soundscape, inviting people to pause and experience time differently through music.<\/p>\n

A new feature this year is that on Saturdays and Sundays at 13:00, concerts will be dedicated to the theme of love. They will feature specially selected classical music pieces about love, ranging from gentle, lyrical melodies to well-known musical themes.<\/p>\n

The program is complemented by the project \u201cWith Love Every Hour\u201d, in which the city clock plays short themed melodies about love every hour from 9:00 to 21:00, turning timekeeping into a musical experience.<\/p>\n

As the organizer Jurgis Pauliukas notes, the idea is to transform the city clock from a mechanical signal into a musical one \u2013 creating a unique acoustic identity for Vilnius. In this tower there is no traditional clock face: you don\u2019t see the time, you hear it.<\/p>\n

The concerts are best heard in the church courtyard, Luki\u0161ki\u0173 aik\u0161t\u0117<\/span><\/span>, and surrounding streets.<\/p>\n
