The M. K. Čiurlionis International Music Festival presents an exceptional event in the musical sky: the legendary French pianist Roger Muraro will perform a program that few dare to play virtuosos - all three parts of Ferenc Liszt's piano cycle "Years of Wanderings".

This is technically and emotionally one of the most complex piano literature cycles, requiring exceptional talent and endurance from the performer.

The musical diary of the Hungarian composer tells not only about the impressions of his trips to Switzerland and Italy, but also reveals the transformation of his personality from a young lover admiring nature and works of art in his first years in Switzerland and a philosopher seeking refreshment in literature in his second years in Italy to a humble thinker who discovered peace and religion in the third.

The three-part cycle consists of 26 plays inspired by the texts of Petrarch, Schiller, Byron, Dante or other writers, the works of Raphael and Michelangelo, and sometimes simply the unique beauty of nature.
