Traditionally, before the brightest winter holidays, opera diva Inese Galante gathers her friends – outstanding Latvian musicians and young talents – and invites Riga's residents and guests to enjoy sacred and classical music.
At the concert, the audience will be able to meet Inese Galante, the owner of the inimitably velvety and sensitive soprano, the world-famous composer and organist Aivars Kalējs, the outstanding countertenor Sergejs Jēgers, the virtuoso pianist Andrejs Osokins, as well as several young and rising stars – winners of the Inese Galante Talent Competition. A special Christmas atmosphere will be created by the Jāzeps Mediņš Riga Music School Boys Choir under the direction of conductor Romāns Vanags.
During the concert, a special light display will fill the Riga Cathedral. The ascetic Gothic church will be fabulously transformed by dynamic light installations that will harmoniously blend into the musical context and create an unforgettable pre-Christmas atmosphere in the performance hall. This concert will be the best gift in the run-up to Christmas.
