For those reading in Latvian – here’s an article I’m honoured to be a part of, looking back at last decade in Jazz in Latvia! Written by one of our most hard-working and dedicated music writers Aiga Leitholde for the National News site LSM.lv featuring important voices from the scene – looking forward to the next 10 and more for sure!
Liels prieks būt daļai no Latvijas džeza 10-gades atskata! Sveicieni visiem, ar kuriem džemojām un spēlējām mūsu sesijās un koncertos, tas notiekti ir viens no maniem personīgajiem “highlights” Lai nākamie 10+ vēl izteiksmīgāki un bagātāki! Paldies raksta autorei Aiga Leitholde par neatlaidību un uzticību mūzikas skatuvei Latvijā.
It’s my honour to be amongst Latvian artists receiving 2020 Latvian State Culture Capital Foundation artist’s stipend to create new work. I’m thankful to the Foundation, Council of the Creative Unions and Cultural ministry for this initiative and amazing opportunity.
There’s so much in store this year – ABYSS, Space Big Band, solo material, more #shednshare series and educational materials. Feeling grateful to have support in making it all a reality and sharing it all with you!!
The world needs arts, especially in challenging times that ask for inner strength and connection. I’m honoured to do my part…
In the photo with a composer Linda Leimane – go and check her music!
Šī gada darbu sarakstā ir gan kvinteta ABYSS albums, gan Space Big Band bigbenda albums, gan vēl neizziņoti mūzikas ieraksti un džeza mūzikas izglītības projekti. Esmu pateicīgs un priecīgs šo visu īstenot, dalīties ar radīto un atbalstīt šādu iniciatīvu turpināšanos!
Lai vairāk Latviešu mākslinieku jaunrades un jaundarbu! Mums pašiem un visai pasaulei. Īpaši laikā, kad jābūt stipriem.
Bija prieks būt klātienē Latvijas Radošo savienību padomes pieņemšanā, lai atzīmētu VKKF “Jaunrades veicināšanas stipendiju mērķprogrammas” izveidi. Prieks satikt māksliniekus, ar kuriem ceļi krustojušies pat skolas laikā – foto kopā ar komponisti ar Lindu Leimani!
Video captured by a friend and great musician Ilona Kudiņa. A special feeling when friends and colleagues come to support. I’ll be returning to Riga on August 31 to play with more of the material and with great Latvian musicians at the Latvian National Library Centenary Gala. Looking forward!
