60 Well-known Latvian folk songs
When our parents and grandparents were forced to leave Latvia during World War II, among the few things they could take with them were their folk songs. During the early years of exile in the Displaced Persons (DP) camps and later in their adopted homelands, not a single celebration, party, or gathering took place without singing. Latvians continue to sing these well-known songs and pass them on to their children and grandchildren.
Lini was established by four second-generation Latvian-Americans in 1994. In this recording we have compiled the most popular folk songs sung in our Minneapolis, MN, and other North American Latvian communities. These discs include serious songs, humorous songs, children’s songs, love songs, orphans' songs, and lullabies. We learned these songs from our parents and grandparents and also at weekend Latvian language schools and have recorded them together with friends in Minneapolis. This recording is intended to help Latvians abroad relive and remember the songs they grew up with and also as educational material for younger Latvians.
