Concert Series at the Riga Dome
MUSIC specializes in playing early music, especially works from the Baroque era. The main goal of the ensemble is to restore and update forgotten spiritual music, especially the works of Ukrainian and Eastern European composers of the 17th century, who made a meaningful contribution to the world’s musical heritage.
February 28 at 18:00, a special medieval music program Harpsichord and the Middle Ages will be presented. World-renowned harpsichordist Corinna Marti from Switzerland will perform. Her interpretations are recognized as “superior and expressive” (Touched) and “infallible” (Tuning fork). She has performed as a soloist and chamber musician with many early music ensembles and orchestras (including Hespèrion XXI, the Choir of the Swiss Italian Radio and Television, and the Helsinki Baroque Orchestra). Promptly after her studies, she was invited to become the first teacher of the medieval and renaissance recorder at the world’s most prestigious school of early music, Schola Cantorum basiliensis (Basel School of Singers).
On March 7 at 18:00, there will be a chance to hear the jazz band The Third stream Quartet, composed of Indriķis Veitners (clarinet), Āriks Miezis (vibraphone), Andris Grunte (double bass), and Pranas Kentra from Lithuania (guitar). The ensemble performs not only original compositions but also arrangements of pieces from different eras and styles. The focus of the quartet is cool jazz and third stream stylistics, so the instrumentation deliberately does not use a drum kit to achieve a more pronounced chamber ensemble sound. The term third stream denotes the fusion of jazz and classical music, which also characterizes the ensemble’s programs. The concert will feature compositions by gunārs Rozenberg, Zigmars Liepiņš, Uldas Marhilevičs, Indriķs Veitner, and foreign authors.
March 15 at 18:00, at the concert Džezbaroks. BACH, the jazz baroque group will perform – Jānis Strazdiņš (voice), Lāsma Meldere Šestakova (baroque violin), Jānis Rubiks (jazz double bassist), and Aigars Reinis (vocals). The program brings together the works of five composers from the Bach family – from Johann Michael and Johann Bernhard to J.S. Bach and his sons – revealing a rich musical heritage spanning more than a century. The Jazz Baroque Association offers these pieces a new lease on life, interweaving baroque aesthetics with the freedom and improvisation of jazz.In the center of the program is the well-known Bach Magnificat, which the musicians have tried to emulate in their usual improvisational style. As always, expect many surprises and freedom in musical expressions. This is already the fifth program created by this association,where each one is very different and full of creative surprises.
