My absolute favorite song in the whole world. My group sang with arms across our neighbors' shoulders. This is magical every time. Especially when the bases roar, and the sopranos respond
I have sung it two times at Gaudeamus singing party, in 2006 and 2018. At concerts I was finally able to sing it while at rehearsals I was about to cry.
That was so Beautiful, I truly am Blessed to have watched it and thanks to Vicki Zanartu for sending me the link. I enjoyed seeing the youth when they saw themselves on the big screen and the smiles it opened on their faces! 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
As you can tell by my name, I am not from any of the Baltic nations. Perhaps someone can clarify something for me. In the scene following the one featuring President Dalia Grybauskaitė, there is then a close-up of a young lady. She looks very much like the folk singer/ethnomusicologist Jogailė Jurkutė I wonder if it is her? Whether it is her, or just someone who looks like her, I must say what a sweet expression and reaction she has while the camera is on her.
