Cappella'A, a professional vocal group from Klaipeda, Lithuania, has been performing a cappella music since 2003. The concerts performed by this four member group defy all stereotypes, as the listener forgets that the sound being created is coming from four highly skilled and trained voices, without any musical accompaniment. Kristina Jatautaitė, Rasa Serra, Aušra Smičiūtė and Mindaugas Putnas have spent years honing their beautiful craft, and have received international acclaim from professionals and critics alike. Cappella'A has performed in concerts, festivals and competitions throughout Lithuania and Europe, receiving several honors and awards over the past decade. Cappella'A does not limit itself in terms of musical selection, performing songs ranging from older Lithuanian pop standards to contemporary Lithuanian tracks, each song infused with a jazz twist all their own.
Cappella'A is excited to perform in a venue rich with musical history, suited for their vocal style, and for a crowd that appreciates the beauty of the voice. For the X North American Lithuanian Song Festival, the group has asked two well-known Lithuanian jazz musicians and friends to join them on stage for what promises to be an evening full of wonderment for what the human voice is truly capable of – a fitting way to celebrate a weekend of Lithuanian song and Lithuanian singing.
Doors are open to the public at 7:30 PM. The concert starts at 8:30 PM.
