“Etnodžezs vol. Bārta” is an ethno-jazz concert in Liepāja at the Lielais Dzintars concert hall’s chamber hall on 24 November 2026. The project’s closing concert will present the premiere of compositions created by students of the Liepāja Music, Art and Design Secondary School, inspired by the traditional musical heritage of Bārta. Around ten new works will combine Bārta melodies with jazz, improvisation and the young musicians’ creative perspectives. During the project, the participants explored Bārta melodies, vocal polyphony traditions and ethnomusicological approaches through lectures, masterclasses, traditional-music research and rehearsals. The concert is organised by the Kurzeme Creative Industries Development Centre in cooperation with LMMDV and the Bārta Ethnographic Ensemble.
