Summer Moods | CinAmono duo

After a year in California and tours across the United States, the musicians return to Vilnius with renewed energy. 

The foundation of CinAmono’s sound is voice and double bass. With just two instruments, every pause, intonation and improvisational turn becomes especially clear. Laura and Vytis improvise extensively on stage, exchange musical ideas and create a surprisingly rich sound from their minimalist setup – from quiet, almost chamber-like passages to theatrical and rhythmically free improvisations.

The duo has been performing together for more than a decade, with Lithuanian poetry forming an important part of their creative work. Their latest album, Duo, features nine compositions based on texts by seven Lithuanian poets: Vytautas Mačernis, Salomėja Nėris, Jonas Mekas, Valdemaras Kukulas, Liudvikas Jakimavičius, Tautvydas Marcinkevičiūtė and Artūras Valionis.

The September 3 concert will also feature audience favourites “Liuku Liuku,” “Mano vasara” and other CinAmono pieces from different periods of their creative journey.

The Summer Moods concerts take place in the intimate garden of the Carmelite Monastery at the Gates of Dawn, a unique space open to just one hundred listeners. On September 3, only two instruments – voice and double bass – will fill the garden under the open sky, while the intimate setting will allow the audience to hear every pause, intonation and spontaneous improvisation up close.

Before the concert, guests are invited to enjoy an aperitif in the garden. The aperitif is not included in the ticket price and places are limited, so advance registration is required by phone: +370 621 77016.
