Our Take

Eduard Tubin: Kratt". If you're not familiar with Estonian composer Eduard Tubin, fear not! The Estonian Festival Orchestra, under the baton of the illustrious Paavo Jarvi, is here to introduce you to his mystical world through their latest recording of "Kratt". The album kicks off with "Kratt's Dance With A Distorted Mirror", a frenetic piece that immediately grabs your attention with its angular melodies and explosive rhythms. Florian Donderer's violin playing is nothing short of electrifying, perfectly capturing the chaotic energy of Tubin's score.

As the album unfolds, we are taken on a sonic journey through the forests of Estonia, with each track painting a vivid picture of the mythical creature known as the Kratt. "The Hunt Of The Kratt" is a particularly thrilling piece, with its thunderous percussion and haunting strings creating a sense of urgency and suspense.

Throughout the album, Jarvi and the Estonian Festival Orchestra show off their impeccable musicianship, bringing Tubin's compositions to life with precision and passion. Each note is expertly played, each phrase beautifully shaped, making for a truly immersive listening experience.

In conclusion, "Kratt" is a must-listen for fans of contemporary classical music and anyone looking to expand their musical horizons. So grab your headphones, close your eyes, and let the Estonian Festival Orchestra whisk you away to a world of magic and wonder. You won't be disappointed.
