This article makes Kalniņš seem like some fake artist appointed by the 'totalitarian government of socialist Latvia for the peoples enjoyment' but in fact he is a sophisticated prog-rock composer and this article is way too subjective. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.198.145.223 ( talk) 16:28, 24 June 2012 (UTC) reply
