Lietuvos himnas
We will be singing "Tegul saulė Lietuvos tamsumus prašalina" and in G major as written in the music books, not as sung in the voice part recordings. (These voice part recordings were originally prepared for Dainų šventė 2014 in Lietuva, hence the small difference.)

In bars 13-17, sopranos take the high note, alto 1 takes the middle note, and alto 2 takes the bottom note.
