The talent and commitment of the individual singers and the leadership of their mercurial conductor, Stephen Layton, ensure that their performances are always of the very highest standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVeljo Tormis is—along with Arvo Pärt—Estonia’s most famous living composer, holding an almost mystic status in his home country. He is also the passionate and practical torch-bearer for folk-singing revival, and the integration of an ancient cultural inheritance into thoroughly modern, post-Soviet lives. Interestingly, he trained at the Moscow conservatoire and was steeped in Soviet instruction during his early musical life. His music is almost all written for choirs; few composers have ever been so committed to one genre. Tormis’s choral specialism marks him out from Bartók, Kodály, Vaughan Williams and Grainger, whose pioneering interest in folksong was ultimately less purist given their use of the tunes alone in instrumental or orchestral works: for Tormis, the words and the music are inseparable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Holst Singers have recently been invited to Estonia to perform Tormis’s music—a great honour, and a mark of their mastery of the repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/official_TRACK_LISTING_WITH_WORLD_0dc0c6c8-3485-4867-8aa8-a09c520223c1.png?v=1668436329\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eKaks laulu Ernst Enno sõnadele 'Two songs to words by Ernst Enno'[7'54]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1 Noore suve muinasjutt 'Early summer’s fairy tale'  Kuskil küla taga vainul 'Distant on the village meadow'[2'34]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2 Kuulmata kuskil kumiseb kodu 'Soundlessly somewhere murmurings homeward'[5'20]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eKolm eesti mängulaulu 'Three Estonian game songs'[7'14]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3 Käsikivimäng 'The grindstone game'  Jauha, jauha nu 'Grinding, grinding now'[2'14]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eFiona Challacombe (alto)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4 Sõrmemähkimismäng 'The finger-binding game'  Kes sääl mõtsan puida ragu?
