Concert participants: Iveta Apkalna is one of Europe’s<br />
most active and sought-after solo organists. A brilliant<br />
concert presence, perfect virtuosity and an impeccable<br />
sense of style come together in her playing. Iveta’s<br />
characteristic effervescent enthusiasm, very serious<br />
attitude to work, careful attention to detail and ability<br />
to create comprehensive interpretations allow her to<br />
majestically command her instrument, which tends<br />
to be called the pinnacle of creation among musical<br />
instruments.
