The concert institution Kauno Santaka and the Wind Orchestra Ąžuolynas, which is celebrating its 60th anniversary in 2021, renewed the face of the festival „Padūduokim Kaunui”, which was created in 2002, by inserting not only orchestras, but also modern artistic content, education, cooperation with music authors, internationality and discussion of issues relevant to this field - aspects of repertoire, audience development. By bringing together professional collectives, the horizontal principle of development is pursued - from professionals to amateurs, operating in educational institutions to emerging derivative, creators to unused interactions.

One of the most important factors in the renewal of the idea of ​​BandFest is that the achievements and diversity of orchestras of the last twentieth century have become testimonies of high artistic value. Over the last decade, the specifics of orchestra formation and the peculiarities of activities in Lithuania have begun to approach Western standards, and significant qualitative changes have been achieved in this area. The experience of wind orchestras in Western Europe and other developed countries of the world has been different for many years, so the aim is to choose wind, jazz orchestras and band music as very popular in most countries – in small town communities, educational institutions organizing concert programs of Classical, Church and Entertainment music.

"This festival is not only an important “league of professionals”, but also a platform of cooperation and connections, which focuses on professional groups, connections with amateurs, diversity of orchestras types and styles, modern connections and initiatives in cooperation with other fields of art, educational institutions, Lithuanian and world experience, for the development of high-quality and constantly updated content. ”- Vaidas Andriuškevičius, the head of the concert institution Kauno Santaka, says about the renewed format of the festival.
