The magic of the moment will be captured in the concert “A Moment, Music and a Word” by contemporary jazz pianist Kristaps Vanadziņš, guitarist Rihards Lībietis and his band (Toms Kursītis – double bass/voice, Sigvards Dižais – percussion, Mikus Ģērmanis – electric guitar/voice, Pēteris Vaickovskis – piano), painter Kristīne Kutepova, Ukrainian bandura virtuoso Darja Leleko. A special role in the concert will also be given to the word, which will be brought to life by actress Madara Botmane.

Rihards Lībietis and his band will perform excerpts from the concert programme “Water Cycle”, based on the sense of presence and improvisation, which will be performed more widely in autumn this year. The main inspiration for this programme is Latvian nature, tranquillity and the sounds of water, complemented by musical influences from various contemporary music styles. The sound will be slightly meditative, atmospheric, but with some fiery bursts. It will be transferred onto canvas by painter Kristīne Kutepova. Inspired by the music, the artist will indulge in spontaneous, expressive painting, allowing you to experience one of the most beautiful moments – the birth of art.

Kristaps Vanadziņš will take the audience on a musical journey through emotions and melodies. The pianist will play melodies familiar to the audience, mixed with his own compositions, and will invite the audience to participate in a musical interaction – special improvised portraits of the audience will be created – musical miracles created “here and now”.
