On Saturday, August 29, in Vārme Parish, Kuldīga Municipality, as part of the “Liepāja – European Capital of Culture 2027” programme, a guided walk will take place in the Polīši Ravines — a place where the calm and energy of nature meet along forest trails, steep sandstone outcrops, and the lively flow of the Šķēde River.<\/p>
At 18:00, Liepāja 2027 ambassador and artist Annemarija Gulbe will lead the walk through the ravines, inviting participants to observe the forest more thoughtfully.
\nMeanwhile, at 19:00, halfway through the walk, Ance Jankovska and Santa Kauliņa will perform a free improvisation in the Polīši ravines, allowing the music to become part of the riverside soundscape.<\/p>
Ance Jankovska is a singer and vocal teacher. She is active in Latvia’s jazz and popular music scene, performing in various ensembles and collaborating with musicians from Latvia and abroad. Ance’s musical interests include jazz, popular music, and Latin American music. A special place in her creative work is held by the project Ance Jankovska & Terra Quente, in which she focuses on Brazilian music, particularly samba and bossa nova. In addition to her concert activities, Ance also works as a vocal teacher at the Ventspils Music High School.<\/p>
Santa Kauliņa is a jazz pianist, educator, composer, arranger, and session musician. She represents the new generation of Latvian jazz musicians and is active not only in jazz but also in pop music and other genres of rhythmic music.
