The Vilnius Sacred Music Choir \u201cAdoramus\u201d presents a special evening at St. Catherine\u2019s Church, featuring exclusive works of contemporary sacred music closely connected to Vilnius.<\/p>\n
As Vilnius hosts the World Apostolic Congress on Mercy in June, this programme contemplates the topic of mercy. At its heart lies the motif of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, inseparable from the history of Vilnius and a source of inspiration for art, music, and architecture for centuries. Today, this symbol finds new expression in the works of contemporary composers, exploring themes of closeness, hope, peace, and the human inner journey.<\/p>\n
The programme includes Ola Gjeilo\u2019s Sacred Heart, Arvo P\u00e4rt\u2019s Salve Regina, P\u0113teris Vasks\u2019 The Fruit of Silence, and others. A special highlight of the evening is the recently premiered cantata Ignis Loyal (I\u0161tikima ugnis) by Dr. Imantas Jonas \u0160imkus and Art\u016bras Valionis<\/span>, dedicated to St. Ignatius of Loyola.<\/p>\n Hear Vilnius resounding with mercy.<\/p>\n PERFORMERS Vocal soloist \u2013 Arminas Skirvainis<\/p>\n Simas Tankevi\u010dius (Violin I) Admission is free.
