The album The Morning Mist was inspired by the research project 'Latvian Classical Violin Music in Transition, c 1980 - 2000'. It is a musical reflection on important pages in Latvian history at the end of the twentieth century, a significant period that saw the Singing Revolution (a series of social uprisings in the Baltics between 1986 and 1991), the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Riga Barricades and Latvia regaining it's independence. Music selection on this album is stylistically diverse, and that is also how I wanted to showcase the dynamics of these years of transition. The new commissions by Linda Leimane and Eriks Esenvalds, as well as the recently composed work by Platon Buravicky, represent the music of today's Latvia. Esenvalds' music also accents the connection to the Singing Revolution and the tradition of choral music in Latvia. Vasks is represented here as one of Latvia's most important composers of music for string instruments, and his earlier work referencing Latvian folk music serves as a distinctive example of the expression of Latvianness. The Toccata by Kalejs, for it's part, is as a monumental work for solo violin that illustrates the long-standing violin traditions in Latvia.
