Percussion instruments are not just guardians of rhythm.

Their world is far broader – it can be harsh and gentle, precise and chaotic, playful and meditative, even melodic. They not only keep time but can also disrupt it. The Tīklu House in Jūrmalciems will become a space to enter, lose yourself in, and eventually find your way back.

Three musicians from the Liepāja Symphony Orchestra – Māris Zīlmanis, Marta Kauliņa, and Reinis Tomiņš – will make the percussion instruments sing. Drums, bells, and cymbals will merge into a shared poetic moment.

The South Kurzeme Festival “Rimbenieks” is implemented within the framework of the “Liepāja 2027” programme, with funding provided by the Ministry of Culture, the State City of Liepāja, and the municipalities of South Kurzeme and Kuldīga. The festival is supported by LSEZ Terrabalt SIA.
