During the first concert on May 2nd the international performer and winner of the 2008 Coupe Mondiale Vladislav Pligovka for the first time presented M. Majkusiak‘s concerto for accordion and orchestra ‘Concerto Classico’, performing with the Kaunas-based National Symphony Orchestra (conducted by Modestas Pitrenas). On the May 5th Vladislav Pligovka presented his own, solo repertoire playing a concert of classical, original and variety music. During the second part of the concert the whole audience paid close attention to the extreme jazz trio under the leadership of Arnas Mikalkenas‘ – composer and accordion performer, Nerijus Ardzevicius (bass guitar) and Arvydas Joffe (percussion, drums).
