Vykintas Baltakas - About the Music

Baltakas Krönung WergoBaltakas' (co)ro(na) has just been released on the new CD by musikFabrik. Krönung (Coronation) is not about royalty, but about music that sends up shoots and blossoms like crowns. Available now on Wergo.

Josef Woodward wrote in the LA Times Culture Monster: "His (co)ro(na) is a picturesque study in tensions and texture, with instruments producing high, antic fluttering sounds about the grounding force of piano, percussion and long tones on horn. Some strange and sonic tone poetry is at hand, with the bracing sounds balanced by suspended clouds of harmony."
