Phenomenon of choir singing in music education and culture in Estonia and other Baltic states
Choir singing has been and still is extremely popular in all three Baltic republics. It has a long history supported by music education in comprehensive schools. Tradition, continuity and holistic music education are the three main "pilars" of the famous , over 150-year Song Festival tradition. Another important issue is the education of music teachers which has the direct impact to choir singing. In our rapidly changing and globalising world the question of finding balance between new and traditional, entertainment and art remains a big challenge. The question of sustainability deserves a much wider discussion also in the field of musical culture.
