Tallinn This Week › Culture › Music
Music Estonians are often known around the world due to their music-their composers, high-quality choirs, and conductors. You surely know that Arvo Pärt is an Estonian born in a small Estonian town, and then there is Erkki- Sven Tüür, Helena Tulve, and the conductors Tõnu Kaljuste or Neeme and Paavo Järvi; the choirs: the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir, Estonian National Male Choir, Tallinn Boy's Choir, the Ellerhein Girl's Choir; and the orchestras: the Tallinn Chamber Orchestra, the old music ensemble, Hortus Musicus, and others.
Estonia's musical life is quite lively: Estonian Concert, the state concert organization organizes over 800 concerts a year in Estonia's cities and towns, including several international festivals such as NYYD, the Tallinn Organ Festival, the Orient-Eastern Music Festival, Piano-the festival of pianists, the Glass Pearl Game, opeNBaroque … etc. In March of every year, the Estonian Music Days take place, where you can hear newly composed works.
