Liepaja concerti ii

Concerti by Latvian composers Andris DzenItis, Kristaps Petersons, Andris Vecumnieks, Arturs Maskats and Platons Buravickis. The Liepaja Concerti were a commission by the city for twelve Latvian composers to present their reflections about Liepaja. The first compilation of Liepaja Concerti was released in 2017 on a recording published by Odradek Records. The double CD included the works by Rihards Dubra, Eriks Esenvalds, Juris Karlsons, Karlis Lacis and Vilnis Smidbergs. The compilation in your hands right now is the second edition of the Liepaja Concerti. The goal of this album is to show the world a music that is rooted in the rich soil of Latvian culture, and then invite the world to evaluate whether these sounds also capture the attention of those for whom Latvia is merely a beautiful contour on a map or perhaps nothing at all.
