Music through the centuries in the sounds of the oboe
The concert is organized with the funding of the Sēlija Cultural Program supported by the State Culture Capital Foundation and in collaboration with the Jaunjelgava Cultural Center as the closing event of the City Festival.
Reserve your seat in the dome for free, or bring a blanket to listen to the concert on the waterfront outside the dome.
Indris Egle, a master of the oboe, will introduce both the instrument and special arrangements suitable for the oboe in classical music. Indris Egle is not only an oboe virtuoso, but also an attractive storyteller.
“Do you know what music is? It is when my heart is like plowed land, when it is like a torn gap, from which fog rises in the early morning, it is a melody that can be heard in the courts of the Gods. The sighs of the heart when it thirsts – it is like music, which has no equal in anything that sounds on this earth, which is made up of notation and sounds and voices. There is nothing like this MUSIC, which alone reaches Heaven…” Indris Egle
