It is often and justly claimed that the Vilnius Choir, established 40 years ago as a mixed chamber choir of the Lithuanian Association of the Blind and Visually Handicapped, is the world’s only collective of this kind in terms of its line-up. Together with the prominent Lithuanian performers the choir gives more than 50 concerts annually. Its repertoire amounts to over 1000 works embracing renaissance and contemporary music. The 45-members collective and its conductor Prof. Povilas Gylys invite to the anniversary concert at the Sts. Johns’ Church featuring Mozart’s Great Mass.

Admission free
