about
Founded in 1940 by Lithuanian composer, conductor and pianist Balys Dvarionas, the Lithuanian National Symphony Orchestra (LNSO) remains one of the most experienced and reputable symphony orchestras in Lithuania. Over almost seven decades of its artistic development, the orchestra has played a vital role in the development of national culture and musical life. A 96-piece orchestra currently consolidates the outstanding forces of Lithuania’s finest musicians led by a graduate of the St. Petersburg Conservatory, Prof. Juozas Domarkas, who has served as its Artistic Director and Chief Conductor since 1964. Other regular conductors with the LNSO are Robertas Šervenikas and Modestas Pitrėnas. The bulk of the LNSO’s repertoire consists of classical and romantic masterpieces spiced by the most innovative 20th-century scores and nearly all the symphonic works written by Lithuanian composers. The LNSO plays around 50 concerts throughout the country a year, most of them in the Great Hall of the Lithuanian National Philharmonic Society in Vilnius. On its international tours each year, the LNSO has repeatedly performed in most of the European countries, Japan and Turkey, and in some of the world’s greatest concert halls and major festivals, including the Musikverein in Vienna, the Alte Oper in Frankfurt, London’s Barbican Centre, Tokyo Metropolitan Space, Schleswig-Holstein Festival, Stars of Moscow, Russian Winter, Warsaw Autumn, Prague Spring and Ludwigsburg Festival.
