The anniversary collection of Vytautas Kernagis' 'Song Theater' vinyls and a photo album was presented on the eve of February 16 at the 'Kernagis' bar, attracting a large gathering of friends, colleagues, and fans of the late artist's work. The event featured a live discussion on the significance of 'Song Theater' to Lithuanian music and performing arts, with contributions from musicologist Darius Užkuraitis, Andrius Kulikauskas Jr., and Vytautas Kernagis Jr. Additionally, performers Raminta Naujanytė-Bjelle and Gytis Ambrazevičius honored Kernagis by performing two of his songs on stage.

The collection celebrates a pivotal and creatively bold phase of Vytautas Kernagis' career—his 'Song Theater' era, which marked the birth of a new genre in the Lithuanian estrade, merging music, theater, and storytelling into a cohesive stage experience. It includes restored audio recordings, archival photographs, and visual material that allow enthusiasts and newcomers alike to rediscover this important chapter in the history of Lithuanian performing arts. The 'Song Theater' represents one of the most daring and innovative steps in Kernagis' creative journey, pushing the boundaries of song and transforming it into a comprehensive theatrical experience.
