Christmas Album from Agne G

Agne G, an internationally recognized and award winning 17-year-old classical crossover
soprano, has just released her new Christmas Album, “Merry Christmas From My Heart”.
This being Agne’s third studio album, it was produced and arranged under her private
label and is a masterpiece of traditional Christmas songs, which includes creative
arrangements by the producer, KC Daugirdas of Los Angeles. Enhancing the brilliance
of Agne’s beautiful voice on the album is the J Matulaitis Mission Children’s Choir
“Vyturys”, violinist Greta Velickaite and flutist Luisa Cartagena. Destined to be a
Christmas music tradition, this album features nine beloved Christmas songs, as well as
the debut of a newly composed Lithuanian poem, “Duok Man Savo Ranka”, written by
poet Sandra Avizienyte’, and set to music and arranged by KC Daugirdas.

“I’m so happy to be able to bring to life this dream of creating a Christmas album for my fans! It encompasses my passion for performing my most favorite songs of the Christmas season, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results that my “musical team” has helped me to accomplish.”

  1. I have this album and have been listening nonstop. I had the pleasure to be in the audience November 19th at The Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet, Illinois. It was s wonderful kickoff to the Christmas season. Looking forward to attending the December 16th and December 23rd concerts. It’s hard to select a favorite, they are all wonderful. I am intrigued with Duok Man savo ranka. It is exquisitely performed by Agne G surrounding each with a magical atmosphere.
