Paul Hillier was one of the pioneers in exploring the music of the Baltic Countries in the last years of the twentieth century, and has always paid particular attention to their repertory, both sacred and secular. Supported by the grace and fervour of the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir, he is a passionate advocate for the choral heritage of these northern lands in this special edition assembling the three excellent volumes of the Baltic Voices series. A tempting invitation to discover this music for yourself!
