    The Choir I wanted to know more about

    by HonestLee on 2/21/17Royce Hall - UCLA - Los Angeles

    I saw the ad that The Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir was coming to UCLA and I bought tickets right away not knowing what the repertoire would be. At the concert I realized that all of the pieces would be of a sacred nature, which is fine with me, but somehow I really was hoping to hear some of the marvelous folk music from that country. Having visited Estonia I was moved by the music that I heard and realized how much importance music played in the daily life of these people. The sonorities emanating from this beautiful, completely a capella choir were magnificent. I especially loved the Arvo Part and the Rachmaninoff pieces. But, again, I would have LOVED hearing some of the magical harmonies and textures of their native folk music and it would have been so lovely if the choir had either been permitted or had the time to meet the audience in the lobby afterwards for conversation. This is what exchanging/presenting music in foreign countries is all about: the discourse of performers and audiences with music being the commonality between them. I really hope, as this group continues its tour, it will reach out more to provide this invaluable, beautiful experience for one country's representatives to have hands on time engaging more with the audience. I certainly hope that they plan on returning to LA sometime soon again.

    Amazing!

    by Nicolejames on 2/21/17Royce Hall - UCLA - Los Angeles

    The sounds of their voices are other worldly! I think this is the best chamber choir I have ever heard!

    Astounding!

    by BeriaCMace on 11/26/13Cathedral of Saint Paul - St Paul

    I loved the Arvo Part pieces which were the main reason I attended this concert, but the opening piece by Brahms was a pleasant surprise! The cathedral was, of course, exquisite and definitely kept my eyes entertained.

    Can't see or hear

    by Lostnotes on 11/25/13Cathedral of Saint Paul - St Paul

    This was a very frustrating concert to attend. I could tell that this was a wonderful chorus, but in that setting, the cathedral, there were problems. I sat in about the last 2/3 of the space. Sight lines were poor and the sound from the singers was blurred. No consonants came through. I had trouble even finding where they were in the texts. At the end the conductor spoke a few words to the audience. We could hear nothing of what he said. You could hear that the first few rows of people laughed and responded, but the rest of us might as well not have been there. That was an expensive ticket for a frustrating experience. Listening on the radio would have been better.

    The singing and venue were outstanding

    by ColdinStPaul on 11/25/13Cathedral of Saint Paul - St Paul

    The singing and accoustics were outstanding. The venue was perfect for the group. It was a memorable evening. But I was somewhat dissappointed, but only mildly so, I would have loved to hear them sing some of their national/revolutionary songs with the same gusto they gave to the classic period pieces.

    Nothing special

    by laudateme on 11/25/13Cathedral of Saint Paul - St Paul

    It was actually a decent choir, but their choices for the program was not good. They started with 2 choral pieces from Brahms, but the rest was pieces from modern contemporary composers like Arvo Pärt. I don't like modern composers when it comes to choral sacred music, not for my taste. Also, as a general rule of thumb, the famous composers are usually supposed to be left to the second part of the concert to keep the interest of audience until the end. It was not the case in this concert. The best pieces were performed first, and that was it. Although I consider myself as a choral geek, I completely lost my interest in the second half.

    Estonian Chamber Choir

    by PattiandBridget on 11/25/13Cathedral of Saint Paul - St Paul

    The Cathedral was a stunning place to hear the "angels" singing. It was a beautiful performance!

    This was the only concert or live entertainment event we have attended in over a year. It was one of the best in my life. These guys are unbelievably good. You have to hear them live to really appreciate their ability.
