The Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir was
founded by Tõnu Kaljuste in 1981. The choir has worked with distinguished
conductors including Claudio Abbado, Helmut Rilling, Neeme Järvi and Ivan
Fisher, among others, and its repertoire ranges from Gregorian chants to late
baroque and 20th century music. The choir’s numerous recordings have won acclaim
from leading critics all over the world, and have been nominated four times for
Grammy Awards.
“Pure and impassioned, astounding choral
artists.”
