Antanas Sabaniauskas
Antanas Sabaniauskas
Unbelievably long and interesting was Antanas Sabaniauskas’ musical life. He was one of best Lithuanian musicians for 60 years. Born 1903, died 1987. This musician is music legend in Lithuania.
Antanas Sabaniauskas Lithuania’s leading pop tenor, whose music was played throughout Europe, a wonderful and big-hearted man who died in obscurity, reviled by his government. The tragedy of Sabaniauskas life, parallels the tragedy of Lithuania. Occupied by the Russians with the collaborator Lithuanian government, Lithuania’s greatest talents were judged by their love of freedom, rather than talent.

The tragedy of Sabaniauskas life, parallels the tragedy of Lithuania. Occupied by the Russians with the collaborator Lithuanian government, Lithuania’s greatest talents were judged by their love of freedom, rather than talent. When the war ended, Sabaniauskas was able to work as a singer in the Lithuanian National Opera chorus. In 1947, when the Communists found out who he was, he was fired.
For the rest of his days he eked out a living doing menial jobs barely able to support himself and his family. In the 70s he was finally allowed to sing in clubs. Like so many things in our lovely little country, who knows how his life would have turned out, and how many people in the world might have enjoyed the singing of this amazing vocalist, had Lithuania remained free. A. Šabaniauskas gimė 1903 m.
gruodžio 20 d. Jurbarke. Mirė 1987 m. Nepaprastai ilgas, įdomus ir turtingas buvo Antano Šabaniausko meninis gyvenimas. Jo nuostabaus grožio balsas (lyrinis tenoras), praturtintas didelio įgimto muzikalumo, šešis dešimtmečius skambėjo ne tik "mažojoje scenoje" (taip ankščiau vadinta estrada), bet ir koncertų salėse, teatrų scenose, per radiją.
A. Šabaniausko įdainavimai paplito Lietuvoje dešimtimis tūkstančių plokštelių. Dar savo karjeros pradžioje pelnęs didžiulį populiarumą, jis, laikui bėgant, tapo liaudies begaliniai pamėgtu artistu, viena žymiausių mūsų krašto meninių asmenybių.
