On Sunday, 16 March, the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre’s Grand Concert Hall will host a concert consisting of works by three great composers: Arvo P\u00e4rt<\/b>, Pyotr Tchaikovsky<\/b>, and Jean Sibelius<\/b>.

The evening will end with Finnish national composer Jean Sibelius’ \u201cSymphony No. 2 in D major Op. 43\u201d. <\/p>\n
