Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir
Biography
One of the best-known chamber choirs in the world, the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir has emphasized the music of Estonian composers. With a history of excellence, the choir has worked with many of the top ensembles and conductors throughout the world. The EPCC won the top prize at the 1991 Takarazuka Chamber Choir Competition in Japan and received its first Grammy nomination two years later for Te Deum. The EPCC has enjoyed a long and mutually beneficial collaboration with the Tallinn Chamber Orchestra. A highlight of this relationship is the 2012 album Arvo Pärt: Adam's Lament, conducted by Kaljuste, which resulted in the EPCC's second Grammy Award. In 2021, the choir issued an album of music of Schnittke and Pärt as well as the album Veljo Tormis: Aastaaegade laulud.
