After the death of Peter Bingelis, the thoughts of the soloist Liudas Mikalauskas: “Who is to blame? Ourselves “

Master Petras Bingelis opened the door of the treatment institution in November due to cold-like symptoms. As it turned out later, he was treated at LSMU Kaunas Hospital for some time, and at the end of the month he was transferred to a special resuscitation department of the Kaunas clinics for COVID-19 patients. The artist’s life died on December 6.

The loss of director P. Bingel was shocked

Bingel’s death shocked his family and colleagues. The opera soloist Liudas Mikalauskas spoke about this topic, who also addressed the current situation of a flawed philosophy rooted in society. According to a famous man, we lose more and more lives for fear of stopping.

According to Liudas, SAM’s recommendations have been “supposedly” applicable for some time. And everything that happens just shows that the only thing we don’t do is not follow the rules.

Out of fear of losing a job, funds, or funding for an art project, cultural people keep rehearsing, not stopping. According to Liudas Mikalauskas, there is nothing to blame, only oneself.

“I think if this continues, there will only be more losses. The number of infections is huge, soon the whole situation will affect the field of sports and other areas. How much has already been affected by the pandemic, and we still do not dare to stop “.

The health risks are enormous

Bingel died … Who is to blame? Ogi ourselves. I say this from the heart because today it hurts a lot. We are to blame, because with our actions we have called others to act as well. Fearing not completing all the projects, spending the funds, achieving this year’s goals, transferring grants, acting, working, rushing to release the prime minister, making records, taking risks and not daring to sit for months.

Bingel died … Who is to blame? Ogi ourselves

We think that the audience would not survive without the art that we create, choose and risk the health of others. We have caused the Ministry of Culture to accept recommendations other than SAM, as if the nature of our work requires that more than ten people be allowed to work. We tried to find additional office space by including “warehouses” so that only 10 square meters would be enough for one artist, and in the end we kept rehearsing in one space.

In theaters, philharmonics, choirs, we sought and sought opportunities to work in jobs that required dozens of people in the same space. And I had to sit at home. It was necessary because today it hurts! We act and with our actions we cause others to act.

We could not adapt, we could not change the nature of work, we did not choose, we took risks

This is how the Kaunas choir acted to prepare the planned programs, to make recordings, because they are supposed to be necessary, otherwise it is not possible, because it will be incomprehensible. How to use the remote control if others are working at full capacity. We could not adapt, we could not change the nature of work, we did not choose, we took risks.

There is no need for such a premiere, no need for such rehearsals, no need for such recordings that we do not have today Peter Bingel.

And we were able to stop, wait and meet Carmina Burana again in crowded hallways after learning of the pandemic.

Everything will no longer be. I know there will be anger, that there will be those who say that we have to show up to sing and dance anyway, but today I am very sorry … And this is not the end … Rest in peace, dear Master, without you Kaunas and Lithuania they no longer exist. “
