  • Augustana Lutheran Church 2710 Northeast 14th Avenue Portland, OR, 97212 United States (map)

We kick off our fourth season with a collection of Baltic gems, featuring the stunning Missa Rigensis by Latvian composer Uģis Prauliņš. A rock musician-turned choral composer, Prauliņš brings to the traditional Mass text a fresh and imaginative approach. Works by Laura Jēkabsone, Cyrillus Kreek, Monika Sokaitė, and Ēriks Ešenvalds further explore the vibrancy of Latvian, Lithuanian, and Estonian choral music.
