RIVER CONCERT and Beatbox Meets Piano battle

One evening, the DOWNTOWN PIANO LAB stage will host world-class beatbox, improvisation, and thrilling musical battles. The highlight of the evening is an exclusive RIVER's concert. French-Colombian artist Enzo Fumex is one of the most prominent names in contemporary beatbox worldwide. After becoming the French beatbox champion in 2018, he later triumphed at the prestigious „Grand Beatbox Battle“ and established himself among the most recognizable artists of the new generation. Today, RIVER performs all over the world – from clubs in Tokyo and New York to Colombia, major European stages, and the legendary „Glastonbury“ festival. However, his greatest strength is not his titles, but his ability to transform the human voice into an entire musical world. BEATBOX MEETS PIANO BATTLE Before the RIVER concert, a beatbox battle format never before seen in Lithuania awaits. The country's best beatbox artists will each perform a three-minute solo during the selection round – just the artist and a microphone. A world-class jury will evaluate participants based on musicality, technique, artistry, and other criteria. The four strongest artists will advance to the battle stage and meet face-to-face. Each battle will consist of two 90-second rounds, where beatbox artists will be accompanied live by piano virtuoso Vytautas Straižys. This is an unpredictable dialogue between voice and piano, where every improvisation is born here and now. After each battle, the jury will immediately announce its verdict. Spectators can look forward to two semi-finals, a third-place play-off, and a grand final. The first-place winner will receive a cash prize and a personal piano or singing lesson with Vytautas Straižys.
