One of the most popular classical music works, the cycle of violin concertos "The Four Seasons" by Italian Baroque genius Antonio Vivaldi, will be performed this time in the form of rock music. More precisely, it will be presented as a symphonic rock version, replacing the solo violin with an electric guitar and enhancing the orchestral sound with rock band percussion.

The enduring popularity of "The Four Seasons," composed in 1725, and its ability to inspire performers from various genres to interpret Vivaldi's masterpiece in their own way is truly remarkable. This quality of the "il prete rosso" – "the red-haired priest" (as the composer was known) will be showcased through the rock compositions of one of Lithuania's most famous rock guitarists, Tomas Varnagiris, and his colleagues, which they will perform between Vivaldi's pieces.
