This is the first CD of the works of a composer and performer Gediminas Gelgotas. Here you can find two latest pieces of the composer: String quartet with oboe (composed in December 2005), Piano Trio (composed in April 2006), and a few piano improvisations. This CD is the result of the creative activity of the first studying year at LMTA as well as an enthusiastic cooperation of course-mates and former classmates. The first performers of String quartet with oboe and Piano Trio, Augusta Jusionytė, Diana Moisejenkaitė, Jurgis Juozapaitis, Giedrius Žukauskas, Emilija Žukauskaitė and Justė Gelgotaitė, did not only record this CD but also performed the pieces for several times in various concerts and included them into their repertoires.
