We hope that for you, the listeners, attending these concerts has become something truly special, so - the meeting place must not be changed! See you at the VEF Palace of Culture in December!", says the group's artistic director Kārlis Auzāns.

You will also hear world and Latvian rock music classics, film music and compositions composed by Kārļis Auzāns.
