Description

LMIC 041

This album – from the Latvian classics to works by our youngest composers – invites us on a long journey. Let us join the musicians in a canoe, join the birds on their migration over Latvia, climb into a modern flying machine and travel to distant southern lands. “When you begin playing, it becomes clear what your soul is like and what’s inside your head,” says Meija. And she invites us to hear this.
