Reklāma
Latvian guitarist, composer, arranger and band leader Mārcis Auziņš: "Due to its specific use, this composition is certainly one of the most interesting one I have made during my career. This was also the first time in the process of creating music that I "tested" fragments of it on friends and acquaintances to understand the range of emotions evoked by different people when hearing it. To my joy and happiness, what I imagined in making this music coincided with the emotions of my audience. I cannot say that the work came easy, but I myself enjoy the end result and I am eager to hear it in real life and get feedback from passengers."
Mārcis Auziņš is a well-known and experienced musician who since 2016 has released two solo albums and performed over 100 solo concerts in Latvia and abroad. He has twice been nominated for Record of the Year at the annual Latvian Music Awards, as well as for Best Inter-Genre Music Album and Best Concert Recording and has also been awarded the second prize at the International Sony Jazz Stage competition for guitarists.
