Estonian National Symphony Orchestra

Chapelfield

This distinguished orchestra, established in Tallinn 100 years ago, is now the most prominent orchestral ambassador of Estonia, working with renowned conductors and soloists world-wide.

We are delighted the orchestra have chosen to perform a work by their most revered national composer, Arvo Pärt, a gesture recognizing the connection between Britain and Estonia; Pärt greatly admired Britten, who he described as possessing an “unusual purity”, which he himself sought.
