#11 Catching an Insightful Moment with Vykintas Baltakas
Vykintas Baltakas walks us through his creative process as a composer, conductor, ensemble organizer and educator. His approach to his compositions vary widely: they can be specific or metaphorical images, lyric poetry, formal models or particularly crafted energy patterns.
