Scandinavian en Baltic music
Northern Lights.
In Noorderlicht, every fortnight an hour exclusively devoted to Scandinavian and Baltic music. There are no limits to our search, surrounded by old and new, known and less known. And we also like to include the whole spectrum of classical music and crossovers. Today we stay on the Baltic north coast between Finland and Estonia. With known and lesser known Estonian works, and a touch of nostalgia for the Finnish romantic period with Erkki Melartin, a lesser known colleague of Sibelius.
