Gabriel Jackson and the Riches of the Baltic Choral Tradition

“Imagine a song so special that everybody knows it by heart, so beautiful that everybody loves it with a passion, and that every five years over 10 000 people gather to sing to hundreds of thousands more.”

Daina Ruduša, "Riga 2014" project coordinator, Latvian Institute, 07.05.2013
