Let's listen:

Sculpture "Old-headed grandmother, how will you raise me", sculptor V. Umbrasienė, height - 3 m.

Hill of Songs (ensemble of wooden sculptures, 1998)
The ensemble of wooden sculptures "Dainų kalnelis" was created by the Baltic Symposium held in 1998. Biršton, during Craftsmen from Latvia, Poland and Lithuania carved works on the themes of folk songs.
A song for a Lithuanian - meditation, health, art, Homeland. The works of folk artists shine with pride, peace, respect for work, man, song, freedom, bird, sun. This hill of songs is interesting in that none of the sculptures created depict the Crucifixion, Mary or any other saint. Here the shepherd blows his pipe, the men sow, thresh, the women bind the stalks of rye. After the works, there are songs and music... People look cheerfully from the sculptures, they gather together to play and sing. In the hands of the musicians are kankles, violin, harmonica, drum - Lithuanian band instruments. In other sculptures, a proud Neptune protects a Nemunas fisherman, the King of Songs looks on, an Angel flies trumpeting the good news.
