THE LETTERS TO THE FUTURE

The Letters to the Future – comes from 1997 and 1999. This is Titas’ joint project together with Raimondas Lekavicius (Raimis).

It was a difficult social and economic situation in Lithuania at the time. Poverty, social inequality, drastic change in society is also reflected in Raimis’ poetry. He well illustrates the challenge to become a self-respected person who values humanity. Constant seek to become a part of free society and disappointment to accomplish this quickly is seen in the mood of Raimis’ words.

Today Raimis is a successful businessman in Lithuania, working for an international company, has created a beautiful family.

The Letters to the Future has been “received” in 2005 (as originally planned by the authors). This is also the year when this album sees the daylight.
Titas composed sounds and music, you can hear Raimis voice in the recording.

Prof. Stephen Deutsch

: "Titas is an imaginative and skilled composer who possesses a wide range of musical styles combined with a real understanding of how music and images come together. His energy and talent are put to good use in any project he undertakes".

Quote from the Peer Raben Award (2009) jury's statement: "The music is an organical part of this excellently done short film. Petrikis masters the connection between picture and sound in a highly sensitive way. The orchestral score produces a strong atmosphere and draws the audience into the film, being an essential part of the narrative. We'd love to hear this composer's music performed by a real orchestra."

Lithuanian composer Giedrius Kuprevicius writes in his website: "Finally the last Titas work "idenTITy" reached me. Six compositions were published at Star Studio in Rome. I am happy that with each new composition Titas makes a progress and surprises me with new musical ideas". More information at G.Kuprevicius website.

Theatre Director Jonas Jurasas about the music for his play Purge: "It was a sincere teamwork that immersed us into hard work to make this performance. We are pleased the result reached the hearts and minds of the audience".
