My doctoral work has been a deeply meaningful part of my creative and professional journey, allowing me to explore my practice with greater depth and to contribute new perspectives to my field.

Dzintra Erliha  - Dreamscape

Released on 28 June 2024 by Prima Classic, Dreamscape presents pianist Dzintra Erliha in a collection of contemporary works by women composers, bringing together solo piano music and chamber works in a richly atmospheric musical journey.

Violinist Tatjana Ostrovska joins Dzintra Erliha and cellist Ivars Bezprozvanovs in three works for piano trio: Esin Aydıngöz’s Years Gone By, Lolita Ritmanis’ Dreamscape, and Ritmanis’ three-movement Vignettes from the Park — Conversations by the Fountain, Moonlight Love, and The Kite, the Boy, the Dog.

These chamber performances form an expressive part of the album, combining violin, cello and piano within a programme devoted to distinctive voices in contemporary music.
