Concert Hall Great Amber in Liepāja invites you to a celebratory concert for the 103rd anniversary of our state featuring the brightest Latvian performers of academic music as well as solo artists under the leadership of conductor Māris Sirmais.
This year, the artistic leadership of the traditional national celebration concert program has been placed in the hands of Latvian choir culture promoter, conductor and visionary Māris Sirmais, who applied his monumental ambition to produce a multi-faceted concert program in two parts.
The stage of the Liepāja Concert Hall will unite organist Iveta Apkalna, percussionist Rihards Fedotovs, oboist Pēteris Endzelis, composer and pianist Raimonds Tiguls, and their sound will be enriched by one of the proudest cultural beacons in Latvia and the largest professional choir in the Baltics, Choir Latvija. They will perform alongside residents of the concert hall – Liepāja Symphony Orchestra and the students of the Liepāja Design and Art School.
