Ausra and I will spend this weekend in Sweden. If you are in the area, come to our organ duet recital at Olaus Petri church in Örebro on Sunday, February 9, 2020 at 6 pm. In the program, works of J.S. Bach, W.A. Mozart, K.Vasiliauskaite, V.Pinkevicius and other composers for four hands and feet. Thanks to Mats Bertilsson for organising it!
By the way, the choir Olaus Petri Cantores that Mats directs at his church will come to sing in May at our church as well. He asked for one Lithuanian song to learn that everyone would know. We couldn't find a better song than "Kur giria žaliuoja" (Where the Forrest is Greening - music by Juozas Gudavičius). At one point it could have become Lithuanian National Anthem. Nowadays it's always sung at our massive song festivals. Everyone is wiping a tear or two when singing it. We hope to livestream our Örebro recital so if everything goes well, you will get to see the recording too.
