Once I break the pattern I break it consistently. This is a link to an Estonian broadcast of music I heard about through Niccola (former Delcamper, I think). Her actual name is Kristiina Jalakas and she is a good guitarist. I am also linking the whole thing not just because that's how it links and because I want Kristiina's playing to get more exposure, but also because there are some sweet Arvo Part performances on this broadcast. For years I have been interested in music from the Baltic republics (very long-time readers of this blog may remember the plug I did for Jonas Tamulionis' work and the great CD the Corona Guitar Quartet did of his work). Baltic Voices 1-3 are also good CDs to go pick up if you want more familiarity with choal music from Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania. The whole broadcast is in Estonian (which I admittedly don't know) BUT the program listing is easy enough to read even if you're not conversant in Estonian.
In other news, this week I received in the mail the newest CD by Atanas Ourkouzounov, which I am excited about. I wish to compose a separate blog entry about that CD and it may take up to a week for me to fully digest the music and articulate my thoughts about his newest recording and to provide these thoughts in the context of my appreciation for his recorded output over the last roughly six years.
