About
“The orchestral players have given this sonic image stunning expression and power. From the very first theme at the beginning of the quartet, we are drawn into a breathtakingly emotional musical narrative. (...) The tempo of the finale was simply fantastic, with rapid changes of dynamic and nuances, but everything sounded expressive and amazingly precise. An interpretation of the highest order and an orchestra of virtuosos”, wrote musicologist Živilė Ramoškaitė about one of the performances of the Lithuanian Chamber Orchestra and its artistic director, violinist and conductor Sergej Krylov. The musicians begin their 65th season with a concert featuring music by Italian composers.
