Again, not a huge amount of information on this one, other than Harmonija was a Chicago based label, releasing the music of Latvians who’d migrated to the USA.
Tabita Jaunzemis was born in Latvia and moved the the US, where she became a concert soloist.
The music itself is beautiful, and aside from woodwinds, features the kokle, a plucked stringed instrument from the region.
If you know anything about this release, associated musicians or record label, please let us know in the comments.
