Ratu by Giriu Dvasios

You can study baltic history and traditions all you want. But nothing will reveal the true baltic spirit better than listening to ancient lithuanian sutartinės. When you listen to them, eventually you join the circular motion of them, and you realise that it‘s not just the song that is moving in circles, not just the performers, not just you, but all the nature is spinning, with all that exists. And you are a part of it all. In my opinion, to have that feeling is to be a true baltic native, a true lithuanian.
