This is the first song from this year’s album, which will include twelve new Raimonds Pauls songs by Ojārs Vācietis, Leons Briežs and Guntars Račs. The recording is produced by Gints Stankevičs. Mārtiņš Kanter’s previous album made in collaboration with Maestro Peppermint tea came out in 2019 and was nominated for an award Gold microphone. This was followed by a joint concert series.
Mārtiņš Kanters says: “I am honored to continue cooperating with Maestro and to record his new songs. A poem by Ojārs Vācietis White morning I first heard when I was six years old, a group of Latvians sang it in a song on the radio, and it spoke to me even at such a young age. I couldn’t imagine it coming back to me this way with music created by Maestro. “
The video director of the song is Kaspars Kambars. The clip was made on a snowy January day in Madona region. Mārtiņš ‘wife Žanete Kantere plays an important role in the video.
“We were lucky enough to be filming the video because we were able to capture one of the last cold days in January. Now watching the video, I realize that we made the right choice when going to Vestiena, Lake Kāli, because the nature there is especially beautiful,” adds the singer.
Song White morning is available on all popular streaming and music download sites Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music u. c.
