In the month of October, an unusual music project @DieVerwandlung-cd4fz visited Latvia, giving concerts in Riga (Kaņepes Kultūras centrs) and Liepāja (Pegaza Pagalms). The musicians base their work on the literary works of the German author Franz Kafka, as well as on his personal letters and notes, preserved despite the author's last will.
We meet the band "Die Verwandlung" in the Latvian National Library, we ask about their experience in Latvia and success within the framework of the world tour. We delve into their music philosophy and learn about upcoming recordings and other future plans. The interview is in English. Latvian and German subtitles are available in the settings.
