“Tõnu Kõrvits’ works are like a door from this world to other worlds – the secret worlds of folk heritage, myth consciousness, the subconscious. His texture patterns are fluid and rich in fantasy, but at their heart are melodies – quiet speech of the soul. Often they appear full of resignation, vanishing quietly into eternity. Some of them suddenly burst out as a colourful flower – to then fade as a fleeting revelation. But the silence is equally important – the fadings, interruptions, emptiness. Sometimes it seems that silence in Tõnu Kõrvits’ music is even more important that the musical material. Because this silence is replete – it hides a secret.” (Evi Arujärv)
Ticket 15/10 €, after party with the same ticket in TAFF Club, music chosen by Tõnu Kõrvits
