The concerts which each begin at 6 pm will feature arias, duets, and trios from world-renowned composers, offering a 60-minute performance of high-level opera music. What sets these performances apart are the period costumes and aesthetic stage design that create a unique atmosphere.

The lineup includes sopranos Maria Listra, Marion Melnik, Kristina Vähi, Maria Veretenina; mezzo-sopranos Sandra Laagus, Annaliisa Pillak, Karmen Puis; tenors Heldur-Harry Põlda (from the National Opera Estonia), Yixuan Wang; baritone Aare Saal; and bass Pavlo Balakin.
