Autumn Opera Night took place on September 28. The guests - about 75 AmCham members and friends - had an opportunity to see the new production "Turaidas Roze" (The Rose of Turaida) by Zigmars Liepiņš and Kaspars Dimiters at the Latvian National Opera and spend an evening with refreshments, snacks and networking. 

About

The Rose of Turaida, an opera by Zigmars Liepiņš with the libretto by Kaspars Dimiters, is a musically and theatrically fresh remake of the opera "No rozes un asinīm." It's a story about the events of 1620, during which the protagonists continue to live out their passions - a story that moved conductor Mārtiņš Ozoliņš and director Ināra Slucka to portray this melodious drama as a timeless legend about Maija's love and loyalty.

Love is stronger than death,
Love is stronger than life.
Life balances on a wire,
And you balance on the wire of death.

If I can, with my final breath,
I will bloom with the Rose.
Eternity will unite us…
