TROUBLES WITH ART 2007-02-02

In brief: The exhibition of the best artwork of the year is not limited by any criteria. The traditional exhibition organised at M.K.Čiurlionis Art Museum is a live illustration what the endless artistic liberality means.

It is the most ironical continuous exhibition of art in Kaunas which is presented by organisers themselves with a slight smile on the face.

PERFORMANCE FOR PATIENT RADIO LISTENERS ONLY 2007-02-16

HOW OUR AND F.J.HAYDN’S WORLD IS CREATED 2007-02-27

In brief: The choir also has an important role in the oratory. Comments and inserts in ensembles sung by the choir, powerful finales help to reveal the drama of the music piece. Kaunas State Choir preserved the image of a professional choir and made an impression by the balanced sound and clear voice aesthetics. Nonetheless, forte prevailed during this performance. If more subtle nuances were searched for, more could be gained from the expression.
