Every year \u201eReeperbahn\u201d \u2013 one of the biggest showcase festivals in Europe \u2013 selects from the strongest and brightest new musicians who will be given a chance to perform in Hamburg at the end of September. This year this opportunity is given to two Latvian musicians \u2013 Elizabete Bal\u010dus and Chris Noah. They will be enjoying the exclusive attention of the world music industry.<\/p>\n
\u201eI\u2019m very happy to be part of a festival where it\u2019s possible to behold the newest and most interesting in the world of music and art. I\u2019ll be taking part in the festival with my electro-acoustic performance where I synthesize electronic and academic music. An important role is given to free-jazz flute improvisations and soniferous vegetables which I use as a synthesizer. This spring I had a chance to perform at \u201eThe Great Escape\u201d festival in Brighton that brought forth a lot of new turning points and useful contacts for my future creative work. I hope to show myself from the best side in the \u201eReeperbahn\u201d festival, widen my audience and find new opportunities and contacts,\u201d \u2013 Elizabete Bal\u010dus shared her thoughts.<\/p>\n
Chris Noah also feels honoured: \u201eI\u2019m glad I can be part of this festival and share the stage with musicians that I highly appreciate because of their music. I wish to prove myself outside of Latvia and I\u2019m especially happy that one of my first foreign stage performances happens to be the \u201eReeperbahn\u201d festival.\u201d<\/p>\n
The festival will be held for the 12th time and will offer 800 various experiences: new musicians, musical shows, newest films and literature, presentations and conferences.<\/p>\n
