“I feel very happy to perform Fratres by Arvo Pärt at the All Saints’ Day Concert of Vanemuine Theatre. The music of this piece reflects something higher than us. All the feelings and yearnings of humankind are hidden there. At every concert the music reveals itself anew – at the end of the piece something magical occurs which cannot be put into words – it’s a breathtaking feeling.
When I first met the musicians of Vanemuine Symphony Orchestra, I felt their warmth and hospitality right away – I am very much looking forward to our reunion.”
– Violin soloist Hans Christian Aavik, laureate of the Music Endowment annual award in 2022
