CONVERSATION IN THE GREEN THEATRE

 

Visiting Rundāle Palace and its garden is a summer tradition for Liepāja Symphony Orchestra, and as always the orchestra’s programmes are filled with new colourful sounds, prepared specially for Rundāle.

This summer, we present to you a five-page composition for woodwind instruments, a conversation about the relationship between a muse and power, and to top it off - the majestic choir of brass instruments. There will be echoes of the Renaissance, old Hungarian dances, a brisk Danish wind, fine French sparks and Rococo vignettes.

The concerts will take place in the elegant White Hall and in the palace garden surrounded by night velvet, whereas we invite you to the conversation in the lively atmosphere of the Green Theatre.

For the third year in a row, conversations organized by Liepāja Symphony Orchestra will take place in Rundāle Palace. In previous years we met with the long-term ruler of the palace - Imants Lancmanis, poet Uldis Bērziņš and philosopher Igors Šuvajevs. This year, we will talk about the relationship between beauty and power with psychotherapist Viesturs Rudzītis, who writes striking books that encourage thinking and/or arguing.

The conversation will be inlaid with the sounds of harp played by Dārta Tisenkopfa in brilliantly polished miniatures of Italian, French and Russian music

The ticket includes a visit to the concert and the French Garden.
