Inta Pīrāga Celebrates New Year’s Eve with the Music of Hans Christian Lumbī, Northern Strauss

So that none of the listeners of “Klasikas” would have a sad and lonely mind on New Year’s Eve, Inta Pīrāga chose the music of the Danish composer, trumpeter and bandmaster Hans Christian Lumbī, known as Northern Strauss.

He taught with his waltzes, gallops, regiments and marches to improve the morale of both royal persons and ordinary citizens who took advantage of the railway, sympathized with the soldiers, loved to dance on holidays and enjoy life. In HKLumbī we listen to the music of the Norwegian Radio, Odense and Tivoli Symphony Orchestras, which were made under the leadership of conductors Ari Rasilainen, Pēteras Guts and Tamas Veto.
