Litauische Vokalgruppe "Cappella’A" nimmt am 1.-4. September 2011 am Wettbewerb "Vocal Marathon" in Kroatien (Rijeka) teil. Mehr über den Wettbewerb finden Sie unter dem Link http://www.vocalmarathon.com/Vocal_Marathon/Home.html

The vocal quartet Cappella’A was banded together in 2003. Aušra Smičiūtė and Mindaugas Putna were the ones who spearheaded the idea, when they were producing, recording and arranging an album for a famous lithuanian singer Rosita Čivilytė. The music was based on background vocals. When the album was edited, the music presentation was provided as unplugged. It sparked an idea to make group of four singers, who could do all background vocals live. The first make–up was: Aušra Smičiūtė, Rasa Liutkutė, Aistė Stegvilnaitė and Mindaugas Putna. The first performance was April 1st, 2003, during the filming of the TV show „Be an artist“, whenthe  band was invited as a guest. Then group did a  gospel song „Oh Happy Day“. The appearance was very successful and admired by audiences. Cappella‘A received invitations to work with Lithuanian artists after this well received performance.
In June, 2003 Cappella‘A wrote and sang a song for the final TV show of „Be an artist“ as well as performing backgrounf vocals to young winners.

All performances and concerts were increasingly successful and when the demand for the group became large, Aistė Stegvilnaitė left the group and Monika Liubinaitė, a young prospective singer, joined the group. Then Cappella‘A started to prepeare their own program. There were different kinds of styles added to their program. Including songs from old well known melodies, modern songs, and some jazz interpretations. With this program, the group performed at different Klaipėda city events. They also appeared at clubs: „Bravo“, „Brodvėjus“, Neringa“, Jazz Rock Caffe“, „New York“ – in Vilnius, „Paršelio Rojus“ – in Šventoji, Kaunas Yachtclub, Klaipėda Fishermans culture house, jazz club „Kurpiai“, club “Global“, entertainment centers „Šikšnosparnio lizdas“, „Pramogų bankas“ and etc. They also had a part in the musical TV shows „Vilniaus brodvėjus“ and „Lietuvos dešimtukas“ and they were invited to the Daina Bilevičiūtė project, and also gave concerts at „Women club 666“.
