This was originally a beautiuful a capella rendition of this Lithuanian folk song by singer Agne G. I loved the rhythm of the song and it reminded me a bit of american country music. So just for fun and as an experiment I created a country music style instrumentation and added it to Agne's a capella version.  It makes an interesting crossover of music styles. I hope you like it.

"Giedu Dainelę" -- Lithuanian folk / country music crossover

Agne G sung this beautiful song from the movie Pinocchio accompanied by solo piano, which she posted to her you tube account “AgneGMusic”.  The rendition was beautiful, recorded with subtle and intimate acoustics as you might find in a small music room.  I was curious to see how it might sound with expanded classical instrumentation, and with a more concert hall style acoustics.  In this version I started with her original version and composed and added several classical instruments electronically on a computer, and added a hall-like ambiance.  Of course it is no match for an actual orchestra, but gives us an idea how this lovely performance by Agne G might sound at a concert hall.

When I Hear Your Voice

Agne G. posted on You Tube a home recording video of her singing this wonderful song. I have made some audio adjustments to the sound in this version which I hope has improved the sound quality a bit.

Agne G. Sings "You'll Never Walk Alone"

In August 2014, 12 year old Agne was a guest singer at the Rialto Junior Idol competition where she sang this song. It was recorded from the audience with a video camera. Agne's singing was perfect as usual, but I did some audio enhancements to improve the recording. This is the result. To really appreciate the beauty of this performance, you should listen with good earphones.  The original video with the original sound can be seen on Agne's you tube channel AgneGMusic.

Agne G -- Time To Say Goodbye

Agne Giedraityte, 13 years old, sings Voi Che Sapete by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart from Le Nozze Di Figaro.  The original recording was done live from the audience by her parents using a video camera in October 2014 and was posted to You Tube on Agne's channel “AgneGMusic”.  In the live performance Agne is accompanied by solo piano. It is a lovely performance. However, I was curious how Agne's performance of this great Aria would sound with orchestral accompaniment, and so I mixed a recorded orchestral performance of this Aria with Agne's live performance, and this is the result. I enjoy both versions, solo piano and orchestral, as each gives a different feeling.  While I have adjusted the tone of the original recording to compensate for the acoustics of the venue, no auto-tune or other modification of Agne's singing is ever needed since Agne is pitch perfect on everything she performs. You may want to try listening to this with a good pair of headphones to get the full orchestral effect.
