Two great figures on the global musical scene, two indubitable values of the professional music world – the accordionist Ksenija Sidorova and the Kremerata Baltica Orchestra – are once again coming to Cēsis.

The recent months have been marked by a number of significant events in Ksenija Sidorova’s musical career, including her Royal Albert Hall debut that involved appearing with Sting at the ‘Bryn Terfel at 50’ concert celebrating the Welsh bass-baritone’s birthday and the release of her ‘Carmen’ album at Deutsche Grammophon.
Kremerata Baltica is a frequent guest at the Cēsis Concert Hall, performing with stars of classival music like the pianist Martha Argerich or the French violinist Didier Lockwood, as well as in the annual summer festival concerts. This time around, the orchestra is taking part in a musical interplay with Ksenija Sidorova.

Concert included in the Large season ticket package.
