“Love, pure and true, cruel and deadly, like a fairytale and real…” The great Russian composer Tchaikovsky convincingly described love in all its aspects, taking the listener through a range of emotional states.
This year marks the 170th anniversary of the composer’s birth. His musical oeuvre is among the world’s most famous. His First Piano Concert is the dream of all pianists, while many can hum tunes from “The Nutcracker” or “Swan Lake”. “Eugene Onegin”, completed in 1878, is among the ten most produced stage works. The opera is full of the passion of Pushkin’s drama.
The performance features some of the best Lithuanian soloists: Edgaras Montvidas, winner of the Golden Stage Cross, who performs on the prestigious stages in Europe; Asmik Grigorian, also the winner of the Golden Stage Cross; the winner of the Lithuanian National Prize Vladimiras Prudnikovas; Samsons Izjumovs, a special guest performer from the Latvian National Opera, and others will perform.
