Legendary Film Melodies
Solo piano · Vytautas Straižys · St Catherine’s Church
On the evening of 18 September at St Catherine's Church in Vilnius, we invite you to a sensitive and sincere musical dialogue in which Vytautas Straižys, one of Lithuania's most prominent jazz pianists, will open up the world of legendary film melodies. Recognisable and deeply moving pieces from “Interstellar”, “The Godfather”, “Amélie”, “Titanic” and other cinematic masterpieces will be heard: music that speaks of love, longing and moments that remain for a lifetime. That evening, these melodies will sound different from the way you are used to hearing them. Vytautas Straižys will transform them into interpretations that are virtuosic and dramatic, yet extraordinarily intimate, as though every note were intended personally for you. It is a concert you will remember for a long time, not only for the music but also for the feeling it leaves behind.
