Spring break for young people of Talsi region is already unimaginable without Youth Day. Active peers from other counties have been joining for several years, and this time around 250 young people enjoyed the day in the Talsu sports hall. After a break of several years, the competition for young vocalists «Nots 2024» has also returned, in which five finalists appeared on the big stage.
Next year, Youth Day will be 20 years old, and it seemed like it should be a time to look back on history. However, then the Youth Association “TAS.ES” understood, but what if something more original comes to mind next year, so they looked into the history of the world this time. This year’s theme was “Evolution”, and in their homework, creating tasks for other peers, the teams took them all the way to the 1700s. “I think that evolution is a successful topic, because it is not only entertaining, but also educational,” says Liva Karlsone, a specialist in youth affairs at the Child and Youth Center of the Talsu region. “You also look at the course of history, how the world developed, what it is like today, where are the similarities with earlier times and how to live better in the future.” She points out that this is a great opportunity for young people to communicate and bond with each other, and the Saldus young people have already invited ours to their Youth Day.
The contest for young vocalists «Nots» was once very popular, and now it is back. Armands Svinsters, owner of the cultural center “Kurte” and musician Armands Svinsters worked with five young people for four rehearsals. After the competition, he admitted that the result was fantastic.
“Most of the young people sang even better than in the rehearsal, and I am very happy about that! Because usually on the big stage, where there are lights, sound, the excitement is greater, but the young people really did their thing fantastically. I feel proud!”
admitted their teacher.
The winner of the competition was Christian Kate Tulpe from Meersrag. Her dream is to connect life with music, and this victory will give her even more courage to do so. As an award, Kristiana will receive the opportunity to record in a professional recording studio, but also performing on the big stage is a huge experience for young people. “It’s a good platform for a young person to show themselves and their talent,” says Liva Karlsone, a specialist in youth affairs, who helped the competition to return.
