The folk songs in the works of Latvian composers in exile

The Latvian music does not have a long history. It goes back to the
seventies of the last century when one of the first educated teachers
of Latvian origin Jänis Cimze (1814-1881) published his collection
Dziesmu Rota [Adornment of song] for choir. Four of the eight
volumes of this collection were Lauku pulJes [Field flowers]. Those
were the first Latvian folk song arrangements. Folk song arrangements
for choir have become really important for Latvians - starting
with the pupils ofCimze at the teachers' seminar in Valka and lasting
until today.
