Laima Jansone is one of the most talented players of ethnographic kokle whose performance style holds a special place for improvisation. Her compositions are musical interaction between the meditative and impulsive. The Latvian National Symphony Orchestra (LNSO) is one of the cornerstones of Latvian culture – the animator of achievements in musical creativity, keeper and polisher of classical treasures and a source of thoughtful relaxation. Sonorous, balanced and multicoloured – that is the LNSO today. Its composition has been noticeably renewed with many new musicians; the intensity of playing together, musical activity and joy has increased. The prestige of the orchestra has undoubtedly grown as has its importance in cultural life and its significance in the country’s great range of events, festivals and projects. The orchestra’s path of development has not always been smooth, even and constant. However, with Riga being awarded the status of European Capital of Culture in 2014, the ensemble is prepared and eagerly awaiting next year; it has matured yet is fresh, creative and full of energy.
