TMW 2026 | Eesti Kooriühing esitleb: TMW koorikontsert
“Tormis Variations” is a sonic conversation in which ancient depth and contemporary freedom listen to one another. Veljo Tormis’s folk song–based music enters into dialogue with modern jazz, improvisation, and electronic textures, shaped by spatial acoustics.
Veljo Tormis is one of Estonia’s most internationally influential choral composers, whose work introduced Finno-Ugric folk song to Western audiences as a living, ritualistic, and timeless musical language. His music is performed by choirs worldwide and continues to shape contemporary classical music.
On stage are Maarja Aarma (voice), Karl Madis Pennar (guitar, double bass), and Mikk Kaasik (keyboards), joined by the ETV Girls’ Choir conducted by Aarne Saluveer.
The programme marks the 95th anniversary of Veljo Tormis and was created in collaboration with MYM.EE and the Veljo Tormis Virtual Centre, with support from the Estonian Cultural Endowment.
The Estonian Choral Association unites singers and choirs nationwide, championing both heritage and experimentation in vocal arts.
The concert takes place at Fotografiska’s 2nd floor gallery. At 20:00–21:00, admission only with a ticket to the Estonian Choral Association Presents: TMW Choral Concert.
Ticket prices: €18 / €23
Festival and PRO Passes also on sale.
