It has been only five years since the first “Gates” festival, during which the festival organizers have done great things – marked “Gates” as one of the largest festivals of local singers, gave new life to the abandoned Popes stage, but the main thing, in my opinion, is that the festival The event, the restoration of the stage and other cultural places in Pope has also become an important idea for the local Pope community.
At this time, it would be proud to say – we divorced; as you know, this time itself decides a lot,
Liepāja singer answers the question of “NeFormāta” about changing the format of this year’s festival by laughing Maija Kalniņawhich, together with those living in Pope Daci Vashuku a Ilzi Meieri organizes the fifth festival “Gates”.
This year’s “Vārti” will raise funds for the renovation of the porch of Pope Manor, which will take place in accordance with the project of architect Zaiga Gaile, while the musical program will be replaced by an explosion of one evening rock, ie on July 25. Kulakova and Juris Sējāns rockoratorium “Like the sea, like the earth, like the sky”, but the evening will be closed by the group TURAIDAS ROSE.
However, the already usual presence of singers will not be missed in “Vārti” – Austrasbērni are invited and other singers will have free admission, whose performance times and places are still very unknown to the festival organizers themselves:
maybe we will experience again the times when the singers’ song starts to sound not after the time or the signal of the organizers, but then and where the singers themselves will find it good to be!
Listen to the full conversation with the festival organizers in the appendix, see some quotes from the guests of the show:
The organization of the festival “Gates” once again gave me the opportunity to experience how such a fragile matter as a song can move the material world, and how much they need each other!
cool projects and festivals are alive as long as the organizers themselves are kaifā from the time they first discover this event themselves!
It is also important to leave yesterday’s success to yesterday and go inside next year with a kind of ignorance, not with a feeling – we already know everything and that’s why we’re following last year’s scenario …
The program includes the compositions “Lime Song” and “Convocation of Zvirgzdu” by PĒRKONA’s rockoratoria “As the sea, as the earth, as the sky”, as well as the songs “Wind and Linden” and “Who You Are” by TURAIDA ROSE.
