On September 26, Lithuanian and Japanese music and art will come together in Druskininkai. Pianists Sonata and Rokas Zubovas will invite the audience to experience a dialogue between the works of M. K. Čiurlionis and Japanese composers.

The concert will open with a symbolic greeting from Druskininkai—an adaptation for piano of M. K. Čiurlionis’s symphonic poem “In the Forest,” performed four-handed by Sonata and Rokas Zubovas. This will be followed by works by M. K. Čiurlionis and Japanese composers Seitaro Shibaka, Sawako Tamaru, and Toyono Suzuki.

The musical program will be complemented by a visual narrative—works by M. K. Čiurlionis and the renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai—further expanding the scope of cultural dialogue between Lithuania and Japan.

The Japanese Ambassador to Lithuania will attend the event and deliver a welcoming address. The concert will be hosted by Milda Krasko, a staff member of the Japanese Embassy.
