About the piece:

“Regiväli” is an 8-part masterpiece for mixed choir and string orchestra. It is based on different runo songs. This 50-minute piece can be perceived as a free journey in the footsteps of our ancestors, but it also gives the listeners a chance to follow a multi-layered narrative with a recruit as the main character in the heart of it. Although the war is once again a relevant topic, a recruit can also be compared to a man faced with temporality in a wider sense. The status of a recruit can be set side by side with the inevitability of being mortal – therefore the fate of each and every one of us. This masterpiece has been in the making for four years and has at last found its way on paper. Pärt Uusberg says thanks to: Urmas Kalla, Celia Roose, Janika Oras, Taive Särg, Kärt Johanson
