Buy tickets
The international folklore festival "Pokrovo varpai" is one of the oldest cultural events of ethnic communities in Lithuania, which has existed since 2006. Its name is associated with the Orthodox Pokrov holiday, symbolizing spiritual protection, continuity of traditions and communion. Over the course of two decades, the festival has become a significant cultural platform, where not only the folklore of Lithuanian national communities is presented, but also guests from more than 30 countries around the world - from Sakartvel, Armenia and Ukraine to India, Mexico or Japan.
The festival combines concerts, conferences, traditional singing workshops, educational events and World Music projects.
Part I Leon SOMOV "ECHO OF THE PAST" (world premiere)
This year's festival is officially opened by a concert, which will present the ECHO OF THE PAST, an ambitious project in every sense, dedicated to performers of ethnic vocal and instrumental music, percussion and electronics. The author of the piece, Leon Somov, is one of the most prominent creators of innovative experimental electronic music in Lithuania. At the concert, he will present a live electronic program in which the voices of national minority traditions will become sound hypotheses about identity, memory and presence here and now. Using modern sound synthesis, live voice recordings, field sounds and modular synthesizer signal processing, old tunes will take on a new sound. This is not a reconstruction, but a rebirth - listening without time limits. What's left of a song when you erase time?
Part II THE LIVING TRADITION
In the second part of the concert, listeners will be invited to an inspiring journey through living traditions - the best folklore groups from Armenia, Bulgaria, Latvia, Poland, Lithuania, Spain, Norway, Sakartvel, Serbia, Ukraine will perform. They will present unique, authentic examples of the traditional music of their lands preserved to this day, which reveal the worldview, rhythms and layers of melodic memory of different peoples. It is like a living dialogue with the past, allowing you to feel how tradition breathes today, and how the voices of different cultures merge into a common, inspiring musical whole.
The opening concert of the festival is not only an exceptional musical event, but also a meaningful cultural dialogue between peoples, styles and eras. It is for those who are looking for an unusual sound, deep emotions and cultural meaning.
