Local flavour
The EBBC 2024 Gala concert will be opened by the special Lithuanian part, „Amber Wind”, which will reflect music traditions of Lithuania: from the aristocratic orchestral music concerts in the parks of Palanga, which continues for the second century, to the 100th anniversary of the Lithuanian Song Festival.

Performance „Amber Wind“, curated by the renowned Lithuanian event producer, director and scenic designer Dalius Abaris, will echo of the unity, joy and celebration of the Lithuanian people of today – from the seaside of Palanga to the historic villages of the Aukštaitija region, from the valleys of the river Nemunas to the towers of big cities.

“Amber wind” will be performed by the Palanga Wind Orchestra under the direction of conductor Vygantas Rekašius.

Concert starts at 20:30 in the Palanga Concert Hall 4 May 2024.
