Even in the instrumental compositions, a sense of temporality and the aromas of the past can be felt. That is why I say there is life in all of this music \u2013 and perhaps, within it, you may also recognize echoes of your own personal stories and emotions from the past. You may have heard most of these compositions performed on different instruments. These compositions date from the past century to the present day.&#8221; \u2013 in these words, the composer, the winner of the Lithuanian National Prize for Culture and Arts, Zita Bru\u017eait\u0117 (b. 1966), has described her CD album <em>The Mirages<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The debut CD of the Kaunas Piano Trio features Lithuanian content \u2013 a portrait of one Lithuanian composer. The album consists of 14 compositions by Zita Bru\u017eait\u0117, most of which are well known and performed not only in Lithuania but also abroad. The compositions are distinguished by their delicate and uncomplicated harmony, inviting the listener to immerse themselves in the silky vortex of sounds. However, the contrasts typical of Zita Bru\u017eait\u0117\u2019s composing style are present here as well\u2014her musical language subtly balances between contemporary music elements, playfulness, and accumulated tranquility. The composer invites the listener not only to immerse themselves in a colourful musical life but also to give space for personal farewells. At the same time, this music is very suitable for concerts and can be performed alongside other compositions in various festival programmes or as part of some cosy thematic evenings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this CD, the compositions by Zita Bru\u017eait\u0117 are interpreted by the Kaunas Piano Trio\u2014Lina Kr\u0117p\u0161tait\u0117 (piano), Indr\u0117 Andru\u0161kevi\u010di\u016bt\u0117 (violin), and Asta Kri\u0161taponien\u0117 (cello)\u2014 with the participation of Giedrius Prunskus (baritone). The Kaunas Piano Trio was established in 2011 and participates in various festivals in Lithuania, has performed in Latvia, Sweden, Norway, Estonia, and the Netherlands, and has collaborated with the Kaunas City Symphony Orchestra, the VMU Chamber Orchestra, and the Kaunas State Choir. In 2014, they won the Grand Prix at the 2nd International Master Competition for Music Teachers in Warsaw. The Kaunas Piano Trio pays special attention to regional concerts and educational projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Giedrius Prunskus is an Associate Professor at the VMU Music Academy Singing Department and a soloist at the Kaunas State Musical Theatre, collaborating with multiple concert institutions and musical ensembles in Lithuania.
