Nelson. Beethoven. Gewandhaus.

The Andrejs Žagars Cultural Development Foundation and the Liepāja Great Amber Concert Hall present the legendary Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra and its artistic director, the world-famous and beloved Maestro Andris Nelsons live in concert – featured in the “Liepāja – European Capital of Culture 2027” festival programme. The magnitude of Nelson’s talent, his vast skillset, ability to ignite musicians and make every concert unforgettable is one-of-a-kind. In 2027, the world will honour the 200th anniversary of Ludwig van Beethoven’s passing. Such a tradition of commemorating geniuses is still quite foreign in Latvia, however, as we keep further integrating into the global art arena, it will be an honour to host, for the second time in Liepāja, one of Europe’s best symphonic collectives.
