Estonia\u2019s 24th annual AFEKT International Contemporary Music Festival will take place in three cities on three different sets of dates. The theme of this year\u2019s festival is \u201cZwei Gef\u00fchle\u201d, which is inspired by Helmut Lachenmann<\/b>\u2019s work of the same name. The festival itself will be a celebration of Lachenmann\u2019s and Arvo P\u00e4rt<\/b>\u2019s 90th birthdays, both of whom are living legends. AFEKT is a festival that honours the works of contemporary composers.<\/p>\n
AFEKT will also perform music by Luciano Berio<\/b> and Pierre Boulez<\/b>, in honour of their 100th birthdays.<\/p>\n

The concerts of AFEKT will of course also include works by other composers, both Estonian and international. Music will be performed by various ensembles and soloists, including the Estonian National Symphony Orchestra. Additionally, several world premieres by several composers will also take place. In a nutshell, if you are a fan of contemporary and classical music, this is an excellent chance to witness some great performances of modern music history, as well as witness history in the making.<\/p>\n
