Cellist Gleb Pyšniak and pianist Rokas Zubovas present works by Lithuanian composer, choirmaster, painter, author, and cultural figure Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis (arranged for cello and piano by Lithuanian cellist Juozas Čelkauskas). Čiurlionis composed in a style that blended late Romanticism with early modernism, incorporating Lithuanian folk music into his works and foreshadowing atonal techniques like serialism. His music is often described as symbolic and mystical, reflecting his work as a painter. The album includes new works by composers from each of the Baltic nations: Mihkel Kerem (Estonia), Zibuokle Martinaityte (Lithuania), and Arturs Maskats (Latvia).
