Ahead of next week's Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir concert, we are taking a closer look at their charismatic conductor Tõnu Kaljuste. In 2014, Kaljuste was listed by the online magazine Estonian World as the second most outstanding Estonian in that year, right behind composer Arvo Pärt. In the same year, he won a Grammy Award in the Best Choral Performance category for his work on Pärt’s album, “Adam’s Lament”, at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles. In 2019 he was presented with the International Classical Music Award (ICMA) in the category of Contemporary Music at a gala event in Lucerne, Switzerland, receiving the award for his recording of Pärt’s four symphonies with the NFM Wrocław Philharmonic Orchestra. You can catch Tõnu Kaljuste and the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir @eestifilharmooniakammerkoor performing in Derry next Monday 14 November at the Guildhall. 🎟 Tickets More on our website (link in bio) @artscouncilni @whatsonderrystrabane @visitderry @sandraduffysf #tõnukaljuste #arvopärt #tonu #kaljuste #estonianmusic #contemporarymusic #classicalmusic #choralmusic #estonianchoralmusic #estonianphilharmonicchamberchoir #grammy #awardwinning #music #derry #derrycity
