Daniel Reuss is the only foreign guest conductor, he conducts on July 4 Bruckner’s “Ave Maria” performed by professional choirs.
The Song Celebration tradition began in 1869 and during the following years it has become one of the most important national events of the Estonian culture.

There's something so very thrilling and unifying about hearing that many human voices in unison. The video clip gave me chills!
ReplyDeleteHi Willow,
ReplyDeleteI do love to hear many voices. Whenever the Faure & Durufle Requiems are being performed I have to go. I cannot even imagine what 20,000 voices would sound like. One year I'd really love to hear this in person.
Best,
David
