Featuring Yuri Suchanov (piano)
The program will feature the most beautiful songs of joy and good mood
"Sometimes you get a feeling - I call it moments of happiness - when it's like an angel descends and affects not only you, but also the audience, because then they remember it for a long time. And then I see tears in the eyes of the audience. This is the biggest holiday for me. And the next time it might happen in a rural community, or it might happen in the Philharmonic Hall. But it doesn't always happen that way - angels don't come down that often", singer Judita LEITAITĖ said in an interview, opening her heart and the beauty of the song in her concerts.
