Vykintas Baltakas completes Cladi Cycle with world premiere of Cladi V
Vykintas Baltakas’ Cladi Cycle was performed in its entirety at schwere reiter in Munich on 3 October, including the world premiere of Cladi V. The complete five-part cycle was performed by ensemble der/gelbe/klang under conductor Armando Merino.
Developed over six years, Cladi began in 2020 and has gradually evolved into a cycle for accordion, ensemble and electronics. The completion of Cladi V in 2026 brings together the five works as a single cycle.
Following the Munich performance, the complete Cladi Cycle will travel to Lithuania, where it will be performed on 10 October as part of the Muzikos Ruduo festival in Vilnius.
