Tõnu Kõrvits’ “Moorland Elegies” for choir and string instruments (premiere)

Tõnu Kõrvits is this season’s Tallinn Philharmonic Society’s composer-in-residence. The song cycle’s text is based on Emily Brontë’s poems, selected and translated by Doris Kareva.

Come, the wind may never again

Blow as now it blows for us;

And the stars may never again shine as now they shine…
