Three selections of Veljo Tormis music recorded my Ants Soots and Estonian National Male Choir have been published under the title 'Vision of Estonia', the present fourth selection consists of compositions based on the old songs of other peoples, hence the title 'Visions Beyond Estonia'. Though Tormis has always stressed that he's is a national composer, and the previous 'Visions' have clearly introduced him as an Estonian composer, his combative position for Estonian cultural heritage is actually quite open and sympathetic with the defense of nature, traditional cultures and endangered peoples in general.
