Sinfonietta Rīga 20th Anniversary Season Closing

The 20th season closing concert marks a divide in the creative biography of Sinfonietta Rīga as Normunds Šnē picks up the conductor's baton for one last time as the artistic director of the orchestra. In his mission to initiate the creation of new works as well as to perform the music of his contemporaries and Latvian composers, Šnē has been an artistic visionary. It is evidenced also by this very special programme with a premiere of a new work by Krists Auznieks - one of a dozen of prolific composers of the new generation of Latvian music.
