On September 4, percussionist Arkadij Gotesman and violinist Boris Kirzner from “Rakija Klezmer Orkestar” will create a cheerful afternoon on the Summer Stage combining Roma and Litvak music. The musicians aim to bring back to the world of modern music the tradition of klezmer music, which almost disappeared after the Second World War. Klezmers are musicians performing Jewish folk music.<\/span><\/p>\nOrganizers: “Menini\u0173 projekt\u0173 ciklai” and “Kaunas 2022” Memory Office<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/i><\/div><\/div>8d. 15:00<\/span> Maironis Literary Museum program for children<\/span> <\/div><\/div><\/div>

September 15 | 8 PM – 10 PM<\/h3>\nToru\u0144 Improvisers’ Orchestra<\/h3>\n
Toru\u0144 Improvisers’ Orchestra is a band started in January of 2019 by musician Maciej Karmi\u0144ski. The Orchestra has a largely performative character. The artists use their instruments in unconventional ways, combining acoustic sounds with electronics or using everyday objects to create sounds.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/i><\/div><\/div>16d. 20:00<\/span> CLOSING WEEKEND: Gischt (AT) and R\u016bta MUR (LT)<\/span> <\/div><\/div><\/div>
September 16 | 8 PM – 11 PM<\/h3>\nCLOSING WEEKEND: Gischt (AT) and R\u016bta MUR (LT)<\/h3>\n
On September 16, even two performers will appear on the Summer Stage: Ursula Winterauer, known as Gischt, from Austria together with R\u016bta MUR from Lithuania.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nGischt generates raw sounds between brutality and harmony. Her eclectic soundscapes deliver differentiated interpretations of the genres industrial, techno and ambient, which are reflected by means of bass guitar, synthesizer and electro-smog clouds.<\/span><\/p>\nOn the other hand, while listening to the songs of\u00a0 Kaunas 2022 ambassador R\u016bta MUR, you will be transferred to the romantic melancholy and nostalgia of the 80s. The artist herself calls her style “the new nostalgia” \u2013 it’s loneliness, being yourself, a feeling of lack and the inability to establish a real, deeper connection.<\/span><\/p>\nGischt is brought in cooperation with Bad Ischl \u2013 Salzkammergut ECoC 2024 (Austria)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/i><\/div><\/div>17d. 20:00<\/span> CLOSING WEEKEND: Tim Freitag (CH) and ABUDU (LT)<\/span> <\/div><\/div><\/div>
September 17 | 8 PM – 11 PM<\/h3>\nCLOSING WEEKEND: Tim Freitag (CH) and ABUDU (LT)<\/h3>\n
The concerts in the Town Hall Square, which have delighted the residents and guests of Kaunas throughout the summer months and in September, have come to an end. This grand Kaunas 2022 summer project will be closed on September 17 by a male sextet from Zurich Tim Freitag and one of the most emerging alternative music groups in Lithuania ABUDU.<\/span><\/p>\nTim Freitag, a boy band from Switzerland, says they are able to do what many Swiss and international artists rarely do: to entertain and captivate a new, previously unknown audience throughout the show. The secret of this is the charismatic and eccentric band leader Janick and the impressive amount of artistic sweat poured out on stage.<\/span><\/p>\nThe boys’ band ABUDU, appearing on the summer stage, is highly regarded not only among the youth, but also in the music world. In the 2020 M.A.M.A. musical awards, the group ABUDU was nominated for the best album, the best rock group and breakthrough of the year categories. On September 17 ABUDU will enter Kaunas Town Hall Square with a renewed appearance and will make the audience shake the pavement of the old town.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
