The 35th edition of the festival opens on the same day, April 1st, as the new concert institution of the Klaipėda Municipality, the Klaipėda Concert Hall, opened its doors in 2005. It became established in the refurbished premises on Šaulių street, the history of which has been closely bound with the riflemen’s society. In the second half of the 19th century, riflemen owned the largest concert hall in town.
The Lithuanian Armed Forces Orchestra’s “salute to the spring” will serve as a symbolical bridge between the past and the present. The musicians in military uniforms, under the direction of Egidijus Ališauskas, will present a rich programme of the 19th–20th-century music, together with three distinguished soloists: Robertas Beinaris (oboe), Mindaugas Bačkus (cello) and Daumantas Slipkus (piano).
The exhibitions will be displayed in the foyers of the Klaipėda Concert Hall, dedicated both to historical moments of the Riflemen’s House and to the present concert life.
