The Latvian state is like a great tree, deeply rooted in its land, strong in storms, constantly growing, and able to renew itself.
The central image of the concert dedicated to the 108th anniversary of the Proclamation of the Republic of Latvia is a tree, which at the same time serves as a monumental stage structure and a symbol of the Latvian state, people, and culture.
The concept and repertoire of the concert are based on the eight landscapes of the Latvian Cultural Canon, which vividly reveal the diversity created by the interaction of Latvian nature and people.
Each landscape becomes a separate musical and visual story.
Soloists: Aija Andrejeva, Asnate Rancāne, Dagnis Roziņš, Rihards Mačanovskis, vocal group Neaizmirstulītes, trio Oranžās.
