The popular concert series "Audio Spa" takes the Estonian National Symphony Orchestra (ERSO) out of the academic concert hall, offering listeners exciting musical journeys and new horizons. As this season's concerts take place in various locations across Tallinn with stunning seaside views, the series carries the subtitle "The Concert Mile".

PERFORMERS

ERSO  Chamber Ensembles

A sunset concert at the Cruise Terminal brings the audience music inspired by light, movement and sea voyages. In this varied programme, each work unfolds in a different palette of sound, as ERSO musicians appear on stage in ever-changing ensembles.

The concert opens with Light Screens, a spirited work by American composer Andrew Norman, inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright’s art-glass windows. The Swedish folk song Who Can Sail Without a Breeze?, arranged by Mogens Andresen, is performed by a trombone quartet. The programme continues with Gabriella Smith’s meditative ensemble work Maré and Tõnu Kõrvits’s cello piece Rändaja laul. Among the concert’s most substantial works are sea poems with an impressionistic hue by Tōru Takemitsu and Jüri Reinvere. The evening concludes with Philip Glass’s suggestive rhythmic patterns in a dialogue between double bass and timpani.

In April, the "Audio Spa" series offers an atmospheric evening at the Old City Harbour Cruise Terminal. Guests can enjoy the sunset over the horizon, perfectly complemented by beautiful music.
