Estonian vocal ensemble Heinavanker brings its “stunning, life-affirming music” for this program of runic songs, recreating music in an oral tradition dating back thousands of years. Celebrated for their purity of tone, distinctive blending of voices, and moving improvisations, this ensemble, rarely heard in the United States, brings its luminous, transcendent sound to Roanoke for the first time. |
