5.0 out of 5 stars
A treasure trove of musical gems from Estonia,
By Oliver Owen (Texarkana, TX USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Music from Estonia (Audio CD)
I especially enjoyed the works by Lemba, Eller and Raid. The Lemba symphony is of a Brahmsian character, warm and lyrical and full of interesting musical ideas. The symphony by Raid is quite striking and original in its design, having the same rugged, bracing, outdoorsy feel you get in the music of E. J. Moeran and Jan Sibelius. I am surprised this composer is not better known. The opening movement of Heino Eller's Five Pieces is drop dead gorgeous, with lush string writing and the same plaintive, wistful harmonic language you find in Grieg. You won't be disappointed with this treasure trove of Estonian gems!

A pleasant discovery,
This review is from: Music from Estonia (Audio CD)
This is a small treasury of music that's not played often --beautiful melodies from seldom heard composers.
