Tõnu Kaljuste will start working again as the chief conductor and artistic director of the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir on August 1. Kaljuste was last the chief conductor of the choir in 2001.
Tõnu Kaljuste confirmed that although he was not the chief conductor of the choir in the meantime, the cooperation has continued all the time. The works, events or festivals I have participated in, I have been used as the presenter of the older times, he explained.
Although the Philharmonic Chamber Choir has not been able to perform much in the last year, Kaljuste says that recordings are also important in music. The recordings are ones that stay, the individual concerts here and there in the world are very nice and necessary, but for the musicians, the recordings are most important.
