November 14 - Friday - 7:30 pm
Estonian Chamber Choir
& Tallinn Chamber Orchestra

Tõnu Kaljuste, director

Works by: Pärt, Vivaldi, and more

Presented in collaboration with the Cleveland Chapter of the American Guild of Organists

The 2007 Grammy award winner for best choral performance; 8-time Grammy nominee; Ensemble of 28 plus orchestra. When the EPCC landed in New York for its 1st North American tour in 1995, they were known only as the performers on the Grammy-nominated, best-selling CD of Pärt’s, Te Deum. The concerts showed much more - a virtuosic ensemble who could dazzle in everything from Bach to folk songs to works by fellow Scandinavians. Now they return for their 7th tour to perform new works by Arvo Pärt, Vivaldi’s Beatus Vir & more.

“so wondrously talented a group of singers… The selections and the performances were so fine that they left you feeling like an ingrate, greedily hungry for more.” - The New York Times, March, 2006
