The approximately three-hour concert featured composer Zigmars Liepiņš’s most popular compositions, composed for plays, musicals, operas, animated films and the film “Vayadzīga soloste”. The audience was delighted with “The Song of Quasimodo” from the opera “Paris Notre Dame”, the performances “Emile and the Berlin Boys”, “Mirrors of Imagination”, “Momo” and many others. The medley of songs from the rock opera “Lāčplēsis” was particularly emotional.

The greetings will also be joined by actor Gints Gravelis, singer Dons, group “Citi Zēni”, TDA “Dzintariņš” and “Ačkups”, as well as several unannounced surprise guests and jubilee composer Zigmars Liepiņš.
