Latvia has never before had an ensemble like Sinfonietta Riga. Our repertoire is being created today, and the ensemble regards this as a strategic and responsible mission.\\r\u003cbr\u003eThe compositions on this recording are significant and enduring. We believe that they reflect the unique style of each composer in a vivid and exciting way, allowing no compromises. They have revealed luscious colours and enchanting lightness and nuance in the orchestra's sound.\\r\u003cbr\u003eThe main theme of rising fourths in Arnold Schoenberg's Chamber Symphony No. 1 was destined to fly high and remain in the musical heavens for eternity. I am still fascinated by the notion that cosmic ideas do not always require grandiose resources, that the realisation of such ideas through the energy contained within a relatively small ensemble nevertheless reaches its goal with perfect precision.'
