45 metų „Virgo“ muzikinė kelionė | „Missa Popularis“ pirmąkart Vilniuje

Vilnius University Girls Choir Virgo invites you to a solemn anniversary concert, where for the first time in Vilnius, St. Missa Popularis will be performed at St. John's Church!

This fall we celebrate the 45th anniversary and celebration of the creative activity with a special concert: "Missa Popularis chose, because it is a work created specifically for the girls' choir (later its version of mixed choir), popular in Scandinavia, and in Lithuania it will be its first performance," said Rasa Gelgotienė.

Today, Virgo combines an academic tradition with bold modern programs. The anniversary concert will be joined by collectives-guns, VU Chamber Orchestra and Virgo alumni, a former chorist from all corners of the world to celebrate the band's birthday.
This evening is the sound of the VU community that is worth living live.

Virgo Choir with VU Chamber Orchestra led by Modesto Jankūnas, and collectives: Academic Singing Studio "Veni Gaudere" (leader Adele Mikalkėnienė), Fishermen's Palace Women's Choir "Dangė" Rasa Gelgotienė conducts.

The work is created by Swedish composer Mårtten Jansson. First made in 2015. In Poland. It is one of the most prominent works of Jansson, and today is increasingly performed in Europe and beyond. His music combines the sacred Latin text with the motifs of Swedish folk music.
For the Virgo anniversary, this piece was chosen as a symbolic bridge between tradition and novelty: while maintaining the festive spirit of choral music and at the same time discovering modern, Nordic culture breathing.
