We have entered a new century of the Song Celebration. We did so by remembering what was the most beautiful and thinking about what is yet to come. We gathered all of Lithuania - on stage and behind the scenes, in audience seats and in front of the TV screens. 14 impressive programs were created by dozens of top professional artists anrd 37 thousand participants.
