Andris PogaAbout
Arturs Maskats’ body of work is varied. There is a significant amount of music for the theatre, and that is understandable, since, already at the age of 25, Maskats became the music director at one of Latvia’s leading theatres – the Daile Theatre. He composed music for dozens of performances, and, for his theatre music, he was also nominated for the Spēlmaņu nakts (Performer’s Night) award, which he received on multiple occasions. Maskats was not as active in film but composed music for some dozen films.
Arturs Maskats has also actively worked in the field of academic music. He has composed a symphony, symphonic miniatures, and many distinguished instrumental concertos; several impressive vocal instrumental works, including a mass and a prayer to St Cecilia – the patron saint of music. He has also written solo songs, choir works, and instrumental works.
Andris Poga says: “Maskats’ music has a kind of poetry and pain, which is not often heard in the works by other contemporary composers. It is certainly music of emotion and fantasy, more Dionysus than Apollo.”
