"The Golden Bird", our Lithuanian nomination, corresponds to "The Oscar". It is a great honour to receive it, because we are a rather new brass band, existing only for three years. We feel appreciated and valued‘‘, - said Rolandas Luko拧ius, the conductor of VGTU brass band.
On Thursday evening, at the hall of VGTU Mechanics faculty building, Saulius Liausia, the Director of The Lithuanian Folk Culture Centre, awarded the brass band and its conductor Rolandas Luko拧ius with "The Golden Bird" in the nomination of "The New Glistering Star". The Award ceremony took place during the concert of the brass band.
"We are delighted that our colleagues of other brass bands and the organisers of folk song festivals participate in the event. We are glad that Alfonsas Dani奴nas, Rector of VGTU and other members of our academic society came to the award ceremony. To my mind, it is our real recognition – they want to hear and listen to us," – rejoiced R. Luko拧ius.
The Lithuanian Folk Culture Centre and The World Lithuanian Folk Song Festival Fund award "The Golden Bird" to amateur choirs, theatres, folk song and dance groups, folk music and brass bands and their leaders.
