Under the skillful leadership of Conductor Ein?rs Verro, Concertmistresses Maija Breikša, Margarita Dud?aka, and President Ginta Petra, the Choir took part in 8 concerts in its first year of existence. In the competition for a place in the Song Festival, RBS Choir earned the highest marks among newly established choirs.RBS Choir’s repertoire is primarily contemporary. The Latvian music the Choir sings reflects both original works and traditional folk songs arranged by contemporary composers.
