The Latvian Symphonic Music Grand Concert, which has become a stable part of Latvia's concert life, will celebrate its third decade of existence in 2026. This winter, all of Latvia's professional symphony orchestras will once again come together on one stage, breathing new life into undeservedly forgotten classical treasures and contemporary masterpieces, accompanied by brilliant local soloists and paying tribute to composers celebrating anniversaries. Unlike the usual atmosphere of the Great Guild Hall, the grand concert on January 27 invites you to celebrate Latvian music at the Riga Congress Hall.
