Charismatic Piano Virtuoso

By amanda

Last Friday night a friend and I saw Mūza Rubackytė in concert at the Kaunas Philharmonic.  Rubackytė is an internationally-known Lithuanian pianist who now lives in France.  My friend told me that she goes to hear Rubackytė play every time she gives a concert in Kaunas.  The concert was billed as “Charismatic Piano Virtuoso” and Rubackytė lived up to that description.  She not only plays with great skill, but also with great emotion.  It was a beautiful concert.

There are several videos on youtube, but most of them are with the Lithuanian Philharmonic Orchestra.  I picked this video because it is Rubackytė performing solo as I saw in concert.
