A cheerful bagpipe & drum tune performed by folk group Auli at annual music festival "Kilkim žaibu" in Žagarė town, Lithuania on the 27th of June 2015.
Bagpipe and drum music group Auli was founded in 2003 in Riga, Latvia. Auli's repertoire started out with traditional dance and bagpipe melodies including tunes of other European peoples as well as drum pieces. But they soon developed their own melodies and style, not continuing the traditional route, but also not following the well-beaten path of the various medieval bagpipe and drum groups known all over Europe. The music pieces reflect the creative approach of the group members.
In their third album Etnotranss Auli are going on a conceptional journey of initiation through the underworld, travelling through time and various stages of passion, fear, power and friendship, meeting on their way mythical companions, transforming themselves several times and returning wiser and stronger.
