Recognizable Latvian musicians will perform in the new concert cycle in Kalnciems quarter on Tuesday evenings, every time the audience is also greeted by a special guest – the patron of the evening.
The concerts will take place every Tuesday evening at 7.30 pm, from 7 July to September, and four concerts are already planned for the first month’s program.
Una Meiberga, the head of the Kalnciems Quarter cultural program, noted in the LTV program “Rīta Panorāma” – although various gathering restrictions are still in force and it is difficult to plan events in the future, “within one month we can plan our Tuesday evenings in Kalnciems Quarter.”
Meiberga explained that the organizers of the event wanted to change the course of the concerts: “From the usual 10 years with the wonderful events of Thursday evenings, we have changed a completely different mood with a concert without a crowd – maybe for those who were tired of the visited Kalnciems quarter. We now invite you to listen to music. ”
