In the staged educational musical fairy tale Breeze in the City of Trimitas young audience will get acquainted with orchestral instruments, while older guests will discover gently ironic parallels with current issues in the state and society. In the City of Trimitas, each group of orchestral instruments metaphorically reflects our society. The conductor will become a traffic regulator, the clarinets will be ordinary townspeople, the saxophone group will represent the city’s brats, and the tubas will defend the interests of the rich. The main question of the musical journey through the City of Trimitas is: can very different people coexist harmoniously for a common goal – music and harmony? The Lithuanian Wind Symphony Orchestra invites you to a musical fairy tale Breeze in the City of Trimitas.
