Archyde Exclusive: “Choir Wars” Premiere – A Conductor’s Outlook wiht Maestro Aleksandrs eglitis

The electrifying premiere of “Choir Wars” on March 2nd, 2025, has taken Latvia by storm. With Riga choirs emerging as early frontrunners, we at Archyde were eager to delve deeper into the artistry and dynamics at play. We sat down with Maestro Aleksandrs Eglitis, a renowned choral conductor not directly involved in this season’s competition, to gain an expert’s perspective.

Evaluating “Choir Wars” Performances: an Expert’s take

Archyde: Maestro Eglitis, thank you for joining us. The “Choir Wars” premiere has generated considerable buzz. What were yoru initial impressions of the performances, particularly the Riga choirs’ strong showing?

maestro Eglitis: It was certainly a vibrant start to the season! The Riga choirs demonstrated extraordinary technical proficiency and stage presence.Their musicality shines through, and their song choices clearly resonated with the audience. This high standard definitely sets a compelling benchmark for the rest of the competition.

Laura Reinik’s Impact: A Moment of “Breaking” Through

Archyde: Laura Reinik’s performance was singled out by the judges for creating a powerful emotional connection, with her lyrics described as “breaking” through. As a conductor, what do you look for in a performance that achieves that level of impact?

Maestro Eglitis: That powerful connection hinges on authenticity and vulnerability. It’s not just about hitting the right notes; it’s about conveying genuine emotion and storytelling through music. A singer who embodies the lyrics and connects with the material on a personal level can create a truly unforgettable experience for the listener. Clearly, Laura Reinik achieved that.

The Conductor’s Role: collaboration or Direction?

Archyde: One of the points of contention raised by the judges was the balance between the choir and the conductor’s presence. Where do you feel that balance should lie?

maestro Eglitis: That’s the perennial question in choral music! Ultimately, the choir’s collective sound should be paramount. The conductor’s role is to facilitate that sound, to guide the ensemble and sculpt the performance, but never to overshadow the singers themselves. It’s a collaborative partnership,a delicate dance between direction and allowing the choir’s unique voice to resonate.

Visual Harmony: the Psychology of Colour in Performance

Archyde: The judges also commented on the effective use of color in the choirs’ visual presentation. How critically important is this visual aspect in conveying a choir’s identity?

Maestro Eglitis: Visuals are crucial.Color choices can evoke specific emotions and associations, reinforcing the message of the music and reflecting the spirit of the represented city.It’s a subtle but powerful way to enhance the overall performance and create a cohesive aesthetic that resonates with the audience.

Hometown Bias: A Challenge for the Judges?

Archyde: some judges admitted to struggling with objectivity due to ties to their hometowns. Is complete objectivity possible, or even desirable, in a competition like “Choir Wars”?

Maestro Eglitis: Complete objectivity is a myth, especially in art. Emotional connection is part of the experience but the judges must separate this subjective feeling from the objectivity based criteria. The hometown bias adds another layer that viewers maybe can relate to. However, a good and professional judge should always leave emotions apart and give the points based exclusively on technical capability, music expression, show.

The Future of “Choir Wars”: A thought-provoking Debate

Archyde: Looking ahead, what impact do you think “Choir Wars” will have on the Latvian choral scene?

Maestro Eglitis: I believe it will spark increased interest in choral music and inspire more people to participate in choirs. It provides a platform for talented singers and conductors to showcase their art, and it underscores the importance of community and collaboration. I look forward to seeing how the competition unfolds and the new generation of choral artists it inspires.

Archyde: Maestro Eglitis, thank you for your insights.
