Latvian-American flute player Ilona Kudiņa’s BALTIC TRANSIT (2022) is the result of Ilona’s creative collaboration with accomplished Latvian jazz pianist Viktors Ritovs, jazz vocalist Arta Jēkabsone, drummer Artis Orubs and Grammy-winning Peruvian-American bassist Oscar Stagnaro. BALTIC TRANSIT’s world-fusion compositions draw from Latvian folk music, Latin-American rhythms, and Ilona’s voyage through flute sounds, creating a unique synthesis of ideas.
