 |
  The 12th International Accordion Music Festival will take place in Vilnius from November 12th to 16th.

The first Accordion Music Festival was organized by Lithuanian Accordion Association more than 20 years ago. During these 20 years, the International Accordion Music Festivals in Vilnius have become the most significant feast for Lithuanian accordion lovers. The event has not only acquired regular listeners, admirers of the accordion, but has also contributed considerably to the boost of the image of the accordion in Lithuanian cultural life. Nowadays nobody in Lithuania would be astonished to hear the accordion performing all types of music on the stage, radio or TV, or to hear an accordionist playing with a symphony orchestra.
