As a holiday television, LTV makes sure that every event of Latvian school youth song and dance events finds its viewer! Already on the fifth Saturday evening we enjoy the power of songs and dances together, being together and indulging in the memories of history.
This time teams from Riga, Sēlija and Kurzeme will take part in the regional competition, the leaders of which will be the musician of the group “The Sound Poets” Jānis Aišpurs, the folklore group “Tarkšķi” Katrīna Karele and the musician of the group “Carnival Youth” Kristiāns Kosītis. Fun singing and dancing as always accompanied by Katrīna Dimanta’s orchestra.
ATV game “Let there be a holiday!”
While the Latvian School Youth Song and Dance Festival cannot take place in Mežaparks and Daugava Stadium, Latvijas Televīzija offers to spend six Saturday evenings in a fun and musical company. Together we will explain which region of Latvia is best prepared for the festival and is the most knowledgeable in the history of song and dance festival history. Every week, play “Let there be a feast!” Three teams will take part, consisting of well-known people, musicians, actors, ATV personalities and young people.
We will answer the quick questions of history in an attractive way, dress in folk costumes, mention songs and dances and rotate the Sun Wheel. The teams of all regions and diasporas of Latvia have prepared their questions for the teams.
We invite not only young people, but also their parents to the LTV screens, because we have found emotional video materials in the LTV archives, in which someone may see themselves in the ranks of a choir or dance performance. The intrigue of the most knowledgeable region will be solved last – in the sixth “Let there be a holiday!” in the program, when the chief conductors and dance superiors will participate in the team. Games “Let there be a holiday!” The event will be hosted by the hosts Māra Sleja and Dainis Grūbe, but the festive melodies will be sung by a musical group led by Katrīna Dimanta.
