Trepute Martela

This piece is based on an old Lithuanian folk song and, according to the composer, can hardly be translated. The text tells about a young girl plucking, stretching, and spinning flax while dancing at the same time.The concept is that the singers themselves will play the instruments. Almost any percussion instruments can be used (wood blocks, temple blocks, claves, drums) but it is helpful to use instruments of different pitches and timbres.
