Lithuanian accordionist Martynas Levickis received the 2023 Opus Klassik Instrumentalist of the Year Award earlier this month. The awards ceremony was held at the prestigious Berlin Concert Hall in Germany.

Martynas said, “This award is a great honor and confirmation that I am on the right track.” He thanked “everyone who contributed to his latest album "Autograph", especially – music producers Vilis and Aleksandra Kerams for the fantastic sound of the recording, as well as the members of "Mikroorkéstra", for their arrangements of folk songs that sounded so special.”

Lithuanian National Radio and Television (LRT) reported that Martynas was also given the honor of performing a musical collage from the Lithuanian folk works "Beauštanti aušrele" and "Ruta žalioj" together with the Berlin "Konzerthausorchester", conducted by Joana Mallwitz, at the awards. Once again, the accordion player appeared in the finale of the ceremony and, together with other performers, played collages of George Gershwin's works "Blue Rhapsody" and "I got Rhythm".
