With the concert program “Beyond the Boundaries”, a vocal music band “Latvian Voices” invites you to overcome the traditional perceptions, under the control of which we use to create our understanding as well as ourselves and the world around us.
“Latvian Voices” members are noticed by many as the musical ambassadors of the European Capital of Culture “Riga 2014” and as the keepers of the Latvian folk song traditions. However, with the beginning of the spring, “Latvian Voices” are willing to reveal themselves to the world in a completely new and unusual light, emphasizing their versatility and overcoming the boundaries of nationality, euphony, femininity, and many others. Latvian folk song has always been the basis of the concert programs created and performed by “Latvian Voices”. This time, it will be supplemented with an innovative original music by the band and world music. The expectations of the audience about the a cappella music will be widened in a collaboration with the composer and percussionist Rihards Zaļupe.
In February, “Latvian Voices” released a single “Honey Tree” which will be performed during the concert “Beyond the Boundaries”.
The band has received the annual award of the “Zelta mikrofons 2014” in a category “Best Vocal and the Album of the Choir Music”. The premiere performance of the song “Honey Tree” took a place during the award ceremony.
