Online concert: Global Spring: Kutse kiigele

Kärt Tambet’s bachelor concert represents a story about Estonian traditions searching for a balance to swing with sounds from Brazil, West-Africa, Scandinavia and more. Come and join us in this journey!

The concert can be watched live for free on Youtube on May 27, from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.

“Kutse kiigele” in a direct translation means “Invitation to the swing”. In that context “swing” represents a melting pot for sonic traditions and diversities, but at the same time it highlights the beauty of roots and origins. The “invitation” encourages us to have a dialogue with new and unknown. It is a story about Estonian traditions searching for a balance to swing with sounds from Brazil, West-Africa, Scandinavia and more. Come and join us in this journey!

The concert is part of Kärt Tambet’s Global Music bachelor studies.
