The Desert Music

In February, the orchestra will join the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir for a performance at Teras Beach, a beach sports and leisure centre in Tallinn. In deep winter, audiences can step onto white sands in 26-degree heat and enjoy minimalist atmospheric desert music composed by Steve Reich and John Luther Adams.

His music perfectly echoes the landscape he loves: impersonal, relentless, larger than human scale, yet gorgeous, a quiet chaos of colors, suffused with light. It’s not a climate everyone could live in. But for those who want to bathe their ears in an aural aurora borealis while staying warm inside, it’s a spiritual odyssey well worth taking. - Kyle Gann
