Composer Anna Veismane’s Anniversary Composer Concert “Transformations”

“My path is to seek and to change,” says composer Anna Veismane, the 2026 jubilarian, describing her creative work.

Program:

“Transformations” (2018) for clarinet and string quintet (clarinet, 2 violins, viola, cello, double bass)

“Burned Letter” for piano (2018)

Sonata for violin and piano

“Stringing the Moonbeams,” for violin, viola and piano

Octet “Depth” (2025), premiere (2 violins, viola, cello, double bass, clarinet, bassoon, horn)

The concert features:

Magdalēna Geka (violin), Aleksandrs Kalējs (piano) and the Sinfonietta Rīga Octet.

The concert will be hosted by the composer herself, whom we also know as a personality of Latvian Radio 3 Klasika. Anna Veismane’s presence will allow listeners to take a closer look into her musical world, the behind-the-scenes creation of her works, and fully immerse themselves in the magic of “Transformations.”

The concert is supported by the State Culture Capital Foundation.
