VMU Folklore ensemble “Linago”

LINAGO is a folklore ensemble at Vytautas Magnus University (VMU) where ancient Lithuanian traditions come to life within today’s university community. Here, songs, dances, and games become a living experience, rather than just heritage preserved in books or recordings.

What do LINAGO members do?

• Sing traditional Lithuanian songs and sutartinės (polyphonic songs);

• Dance Lithuanian dances at evening gatherings;

• Play traditional instruments such as skudučiai, horns, and cimbalom, as well as fiddle and accordion typical for folk bands;

• Learn from invited guests – folklore professionals leading creative workshops;

• Perform at university events and beyond.

When are rehearsals?

• Mondays and Wednesdays at 7:00 PM
• VMU Dormitory “Baltija”, Vytauto Ave. 71, Kaunas

Why join?
The ensemble is a community where friendships, experiences, and the joy of making music and dancing together flourish. No musical background is required – just enthusiasm and curiosity.
