A new book dedicated to the 90th anniversary of Dzintari Concert Hall has been presented in Jūrmala, Latvia. Speaking at the launch, Jānis Lediņš, chairman of the Jūrmala City Council, said the publication offers a fresh look at the concert hall's rich history and the people who have shaped it.
A symbol and part of the city's identity
Lediņš described Dzintari Concert Hall as one of the symbols of Jūrmala and an inseparable part of the city's identity. In his view, it is hard to imagine Jūrmala without the sea, the pine forests and the music that sounds in the concert hall each summer.
History, architecture and people
The council chairman stressed that the book is not only a record of the concert hall's history and architecture, but also a story about the people who built up this special place.
Lediņš called the publication a valuable contribution to preserving Jūrmala's cultural heritage for future generations. Such books help record and pass on knowledge about a cultural venue that holds an important place in the life of the city.
