The now eagerly awaited tradition – the State Chamber Orchestra Sinfonietta Rīga concert series Summer Night Chamber Music – will once again take place at the Zuzeum Art Centre, this year in the height of August. It’s that time when summer’s splendor still fills the days, yet the evenings already carry a whisper of autumn in the air. These nostalgic seasonal transformations are perfectly suited to the essence of chamber music! Adding a special atmosphere to this year’s series will be the opportunity to view, in person, Zuzeum presentation of a powerful solo exhibition by the influential Austrian sculptor Erwin Wurm.

This year, the orchestra’s vibrant personalities will reveal their artistry as chamber musicians across four distinct concert evenings, enriched by the engaging introductions of Orests Silabriedis.

27th August 8 p.m.

The opening festivities of Sinfonietta Rīga’s Summer Night Chamber Music series are entrusted this time to the hands of early music experts. Inviting reflection on timeless values and the fleeting nature of life, the centerpiece of the program is the nearly hypnotic Passacaglia della Vita by Stefano Landi. Surrounding it are Baroque compositions imbued with the yearning of love, the joy of dance, serene trust in the Savior, and fiery, tempestuous passions – all resonating strongly with the themes of life sung by the Italian master.

This rich spectrum is further illuminated by excerpts from Dieterich Buxtehude’s allegory-filled cantata “As the deer longs for the water brooks” as well as selections from Henry Purcell’s opera “The Fairy Queen” and the festive Wedding Cantata by the so-called “London Bach.” Complementing the passacaglia’s genre relatives are four chaconnes, each originating from a different cultural and geographical corner of Europe – sparkling with elegance and suffused with gentle mela
