Saulius Petreikis – the most famous Lithuanian multi-instrumentalist, professional musician, wind instruments virtuoso and a wonderful creator mixing popular and classical music, folklore and jazz elements. Instrumental music by Saulius Petreikis – it is a state of mind when time and space disappear, compositions – are deep stories, music notes – heroes of the fairy-tales.
Saulius Petreikis and St. Christopher Chamber Orchestra with a program – “While Waiting for Christmas” – is a feeling of joy, when we think about certainty, send brightest wishes and give gifts. This program – is a meeting and it is so nice in here, because we are all surrounded by our close ones; cosy, because the harmony is in the air; magical, because concentration and hearing leads to a journey around the world.
