Culture event
Europe Day celebrations in Luxembourg
The Europe Day will be celebrated with musical performances by the Luxembourg-based Latvian folk group Dzērves and choir Meluzīna, along with Latvian food tasting.
The Latvian folklore group Dzērves (Cranes) was created in 2007 to teach Latvian traditional songs and dances to children. Adults formed their own folklore group soon afterwards. Together with spouses and children, there are now nearly 50 people in Luxembourg and across the border who call themselves Dzērves.
The mixed Latvian-Luxembourgian choir Meluzīna, conducted by Jūlija Norvele, was founded in September 2012 with the aim of participating in the 25th Latvian Song Celebration in 2013. The choir consists of about 30 singers of Latvian, German and Luxembourgian origin. The repertoire is primarily choral works by Latvian composers and Latvian folk songs.
