*****************
The procession “The Way of Reconciliation” is a kind of opera epilogue. It will take place at the Kaunas Ninth Fort Memorial Complex, will capture the historical and emotional breakthroughs of the tragedy that happened here and will be supplemented with artistic accents. It is a way of concentration, sociality, companionship, memory awakening and meaningfulness, a way of living history, empathy and compassion, and everyone can participate in it. Actor Ramūnas Šimukauskas will help the participants of the procession to keep the emotion of concentration. Then gathered at the Kaunas Ninth Fort Museum the well-known, but contemporary and modern interpreted, present issues of community responding opera “Nabucco” by the all-time unrivaled Maestro of opera genre G. Verdi will be presented.
