In February 2023, the Riga Chamber Choir "Ave Sol" under the leadership of conductor Andris Veismanis recorded rarely sung pearls of Latvian choral songs - three songs by Tālivaldis Ķeniņš, poems by Jānis Kalniņš and Ādolfs Skulte - for the archives of Latvian Radio. Normunds Slava took over the sound control console of these recordings.

In the chordal songs of Tālivaldis Kēniņš, written in three different periods, you can feel both the composer's refined polyphonic writing, and the warm and classic texture of the choir and the splendor of the harmonies. The newly recorded choral songs "Augstākā dzimtene" (1961) with lyrics by Atis Ķeniņš, "Saulīt' vēlu vakarā" (1974) with folk lyrics, as well as the motet "Alleluia", composed in 1981, have reached the listeners.

Jānis Kalniņš emotionally patriotic song "Pirmā nakts" (1947) with lyrics by Zinaida Lazda, composed for Teodors Reiters choir that  premiered in Stockholm in 1948. The song features a wide vocal range of the choir, in which the harmonious timbres of the choir's voices can be clearly heard.

The theme of the sea in the choral work was especially close to Adolfs Skulte, there are several songs in which it is noticeable: "Jūrai" for men's choir, "Vētrainā jūrā", "Pali", "Ledus iet". The poem "Jūrai", composed in 1971 with the poetry of Ziedonis Purvis, is dedicated to the Riga Chamber Choir "Ave Sol" and the conductor Imants Kokars. After a break of several decades, the choir sang it in a new interpretation.

The premiere of all five recordings took place on June 13 on Latvian Radio 3 "Klasika", but from June 14 the recording of Ādolfs Skulte poem "Jūrai" can be heard on the most popular streaming platforms - Spotify, Apple Music and many others.
