LITHUANIAN STATE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA The repertoire of the Lithuanian State Symphony Orchestra centres mainly on works by the great masters of the symphonic genres of the nineteenth and earlier twentieth centuries. Under Gintaras Rinkevičius, the orchestra’s founder and artistic director, attention has been paid not only to all the symphonies of Beethoven, Brahms, Mahler and Shostakovich, but to more than twenty classical and romantic operas and ballets, and premières of works by Lithuanian composers, including the opera Mažvydas by Audronė Žigaitytė-Nekrošienė and the oratorio A Letter to All the Faithful by Algirdas Martinaitis, among many others. The first performance of Lamb of God by Feliksas Bajoras was also due to the orchestra, under Gintaras Rinkevičius and the soundtrack recorded by this orchestra accompanied the production of the theatre version of the opera at the National Drama Theatre.
