Andris Veismanis

Andris Veismanis is a Latvian conductor known for his interpretations of choral and orchestral works, particularly focusing on the music of Latvian composers. His discography reveals a deep dive into the country's rich musical heritage, featuring recordings of composers like Jānis Kalniņš, Jāzeps Vītols, and Marģeris Zariņš. He also explores broader repertoire, including works by Liszt, Mendelssohn, Mozart, and Saint-Saëns. Veismanis frequently collaborates with Latvian choirs and orchestras, bringing these often-underrepresented works to wider audiences.

Beyond his commitment to Latvian music, Veismanis also demonstrates an interest in thematic projects. His album "Jūrai" (To the Sea) suggests a curated collection of pieces related to the sea, while releases like "Rīgas mūzika cauri gadsimtiem" (Riga's Music Through the Centuries) point to a dedication to exploring the musical history of his homeland. This combination of national focus and broader musical curiosity makes Veismanis a significant figure in the Latvian classical music scene.
