My Paris - a French music concert

Okoncert presents: “My Paris” - a French music concert in Riga

Paris - a city that leaves no one indifferent.

For centuries, it has been a center of culture and art, attracting a wide variety of poets, artists, and musicians. Here, luxury and simplicity, the bustle of the streets and the quiet of small cafes, happiness and gentle sadness coexist side by side.

As Ernest Hemingway once wrote: “Paris is never finished.” And perhaps that is exactly why one wants to return to it again and again.

The program “My Paris” will feature songs recognizable from the very first notes - from Joe Dassin and Charles Aznavour to Edith Piaf, Lara Fabian, and Zaz.

Songs in which Paris lives, with its light, gentle sadness, passion, and warmth.

On stage - Latvian National Opera prima Jūlija Vasiļjeva and an ensemble of virtuoso musicians, with whom this program has been filling concert halls for several years:

Aldis Kise - (Accordion)

Gidons Grīnbergs - (violin)

Jegors Kovaikovs - (guitar)

Viktors Stankevičs - (double bass)

Virdžīnija Laube-Vītiņa - (Percussion)

Under the vaults of St. Peter's Church, music, light, and space will create an atmosphere in which Paris seems a little closer.

Don't miss it!
