Riu riu chiu by Dagilelis

16th century Spanish "villancico", a common repertoire-for-choirs piece, performed by the Lithuanian boys choir Dagilelis at Moscow Art Theater (MKhAT) in oct. 2016.
That day Dagilelis was a guest choir of the Sveshnikov Boys Choir, who will perform in turn later in the evening. The flower adornment of the porrtait at the back is a tribute to Viktor Popov, famous director of the Sveshnikov Choir Academy from 1970, who passed away in July 2008.

Choir master Remigijus Adornaitis founded Dagilelis in 1990 and has directed the boys ever since. The quality reached by the choir makes them deserve to be better known around Western countries.
