Copenhangen Jazz
Danish composer and saxophone virtuoso Lars Moller will perform with the Latvian Radio Big Band at Dzintari Concert Hall for the first time.

Alongside this, you will hear works that combine cultural influences from other nations, as well as highlights from different periods of the composer's oeuvre.
