Estonia in Focus weekend: Galina Grigorjeva – Vespers (World Première)

Thanks for posting this, Simon – despite her influences arguably being easy to spot (as well as Pärt, I hear Gorecki, and also possibly the “Orthodox” Schnittke, on occasion), Grigorjeva is clearly a force to be reckoned with in her own right, in the choral sphere at least. Are you familiar with her Russian-language cycle On Leaving, which can be heard on here, and the four purely a cappella movements of which have also been sung by my choir a handful of times? Stunning stuff.
