In 2025, the Liepāja Symphony Orchestra concert series “Sounds of Liepāja at Rundāle Palace” will feature four events – on April 5, August 2, October 25 and December 13. The first one will delight the audience with the masterpieces of Viennese classics, such as Joseph Haydn and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
The Liepāja Symphony Orchestra has been regularly performing at Rundāle Palace for more than ten years now, creating a unique musical experience for music lovers in this precious gem of Baroque architecture. The majestic interior of the palace and the acoustics of the White Hall create a special atmosphere allowing the audience to enjoy the beauty of classical music to the fullest.
At the concert taking place on April 5, the outstanding Lithuanian conductor Modestas Barkauskas will lead the Orchestra through two brilliant works of the classical era: Joseph Haydn's Concerto No 2 for Cello and Orchestra and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Symphony No. 40, which is one of the most recognizable and beloved classical music pieces of all time. This symphony, composed in 1788, is the quintessence of Mozart’s genius – it combines deep emotionality, drama and incredible melodic beauty.
