SAULE KILAITE

“Art and Culture for Social Good” Award

If music is a flame fed by emotions, then Saule Kilaite’s is a sparkling, indomitable, and vibrant fire, capable of nourishing even the driest heart. Her origins, her training, her dedication are merely the summits of a vocation that eludes reasoning and the desire for success. Incredible tenacity and unwavering faith in her dreams have seen her walk a treacherous path, step by step, leading her to where she is today, on and off the most coveted stages of the continent, legitimizing the expressive freedom she has fought for tooth and nail. Today, her violin gives life to artistic experiences that go beyond simple listening, and her creative sap accompanies us on an extraordinary journey of discovering infinite possible worlds, transforming music into a tool for connection, healing, and storytelling, whose strings always manage to reach that intimate human 

dimension that resides in each of us.
