Interesting: 

This village (Gaigalava) lives and operates a Gunar Igaunis – a very attractive man and a passive fan of the People's music who, with his family, has also managed to take part IN THE TV show “Singing families”, as a result of which it continues to be quite intense. But it's not the main thing.

In the forest street, 2a Gaigalava found a museum of ancient museum of ancient musical instruments and a workshop. There can be a long time, because the igram is not just a great storyteller, but also brings the guests to the real Session, as it is said today. In particular, there is an opportunity to play together with the artist itself, playing a variety of musical instruments that do not appear to be a complex process at the same time. Rather, on the contrary, it was mild and pleasant. The final result is, of course, not to be compared to the folk music created by masters (the most experienced Igaunis. Gunars is the leader of the chapel “Dziga”, whose records can be bought on the spot). But it sounds much better than he can imagine.
Gunars also knows about any of the acordeonists, ermoņics, battles, mandolines, coaches, bungings, and all of them that have been built for six years. Not all instruments are in the game, but there is much to be restored, and the Gunars also makes new instruments, such as new ones.
As the charismatic Latgalis itself emphasises, particularly welcome families with children, because special amusement is guaranteed.
