This reflective atmosphere is perfectly captured by the Year-End Music Salon, or Aastal\u00f5pu muusikasalong, which will be held this year in two historic buildings in Estonia.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">The concerts will take place in Tallinn\u2019s Town Hall on 29 December 29 at 19:00, and at the Tartu City Museum on 30 December at 19:00. Last year, the Tallinn Town Hall was filled with listeners, including music lovers from Finland.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">The artistic director of the concert is violinist and conductor <b>Maano M\u00e4nni<\/b>, who has also successfully organised year-end music salons in Vaasa for four consecutive years. In Tallinn, the concert additionally offers the opportunity to experience music in the distinguished setting of the 700-year old Town Hall. After the concert, audiences can spend some time exploring the Town Hall\u2019s historical interior.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">This year, M\u00e4nni\u2019s duo partner is the Helsinki-based, internationally acclaimed pianist <b>Irina Zahharenkova<\/b>, often described as a \u201cpoet of the piano\u201d. Her playing combines subtle tonal nuance with deep musical understanding. Zahharenkova has enjoyed successful concert tours in the United States, Germany, and Belgium.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">The programme is built around beloved classical composers. Works by <b>Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Chopin<\/b>, <b>Claude Debussy<\/b>, <b>Fritz Kreisler<\/b>, <b>Toivo Kuula<\/b>, <b>Erik Satie<\/b>, and <b>T\u00f5nu K\u00f5rvits<\/b> will be performed.
