“Only Girls in Jazz” | Sigulda Concert Hall “Baltais Flīģelis”

Only girls in jazz! That means elegance, sparkling rhythms and a few musical surprises. Violinist Ilze Kirsanova and pianist Tatjana Čigorskaja invite you on an exciting musical journey, where jazz reveals itself in a wide range of colours and moods. Did you know that jazz can even hide in Bach’s music? It happily embraces ragtime rhythms, rings out in legendary jazz standards by Ellington and Desmond, visits Gershwin’s opera and surprises with waltzes, blues and rumba. And what would it be without the glamour of Hollywood and Broadway? There’s room here for melodies by Mancini and Chaplin, as well as the cheerful “Hello, Dolly!”. It will be a musical adventure in the world of the 20th century, where the concert stage meets the dance hall and the cinema screen, while jazz playfully crosses every boundary. After all, freedom, elegance and, of course, a good dose of humour suit good jazz! A beautifully decorated Christmas tree, elegant dresses and an uplifting mood will give the evening a special atmosphere and create a true festive feeling. In the end, if there are only girls in jazz, they make the rules! And that means a truly sparkling evening!
