Several of Estonia's top musicians will perform as soloists: Hans Christian Aavik (violin), Maarika Järvi (flute) and Tähe-Lee Liiv (piano). Highlighting Estonian composers and musicians has been the goal of the festival from the very beginning, and this summer the focus is on Arvo Pärt, Maria Kõrvits, Tõnu Kõrvits and Helena Tulve.
