After the triumph of the concert program "Mārtiņš Brauns. A Song for the Game" in Liepāja, which received public and critical acclaim, the Liepāja Symphony Orchestra invites listeners to an unforgettable musical evening in Ventspils in November 2025.
The Liepāja Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of conductor Andris Veismanis, together with soloists Renārs Kaupers, Daumants Kalniņš and Ieva Kerēvics, will play both poignantly melancholic and ironically youthful songs that have won the hearts of many: "Dziesma par spēli", "Daugaviņa", "Dzied' ar mani tautu meita", "Es nesatiki", "Lielais Alberts", "Mīla ir kā uguns", "Mūžīgā pilsēta" and others.
Emīls Zilberts' masterfully crafted symphonic arrangements reveal the versatility of Braun's work, intertwining popular music with nuances of academic music and offering a fascinating journey into the musical world of the legendary Latvian composer.
The concerts “Mārtiņš Brauns. A Song for the Game” held in Liepāja received widespread acclaim and were nominated for the autumn vote for the prestigious Latvian public media annual award in culture “Kilograms of Culture 2024” and won the audience’s sympathy in the “Event” category.
