After two recordings released on Alpha Classics (including a monograph devoted to Erkki-Sven Tüür - ALPHA595 - that won a Diapason d'Or in 2020), the Estonian Festival Orchestra and Paavo Järvi present six works by five internationally renowned Estonian composers: Tõnu Kõrvits, Ülo Krigul, Helena Tulve, Tauno Aints and Lepo Sumera. Four of these pieces were commissioned by the Pärnu Music Festival, founded and directed by Paavo Järvi. This traversal of six original sound-worlds highlights the richness of Estonian musical creation and its multiple facets.

Tonu Kõrvits: To the Moonlight
Ulo Krigul: Chordae
Helena Tulve: L'ombre derrière to
Tauno Aints: Estonia (Overture)
