PROMOČIŲ GIESMĖS

“Songs of the ancestors” is a project where people go back to their roots by singing. Folk songs bring us back to our native path, inspires to reveal something new in our motherland.

The author of the project Laurita Peleniūtė is a musician, folk singer, lector. She has been interested in folk songs and their symbolism for many years, also she had been performing with Folk-Rock band “Žalvarinis“, and now she sings in “MargaMuzika”, “MarosRijos”. This project is created to awaken silent nation, to tell people what treasures and information traditional song hides, by which codes you can decipher it, how singing affects people and how to find your voice which had been locked in your throat.

A singer form “Ugniavijas” Vytenis is also a part of the project. He will invite all the men to a masculine song circle on the first day of the festival, Thursday.

On the second day of the festival, Friday, Laurita and Vytenis will invite everybody to join the song circle. Teaching how to sing is a new activity in our festival, so we hope that it will find its place here in the future as well and ask you to get involved and not stay only spectators.
