Veljo Tormis (b. 1930) is recognized especially for his vocal and choral works. For him, music begins with words; he does not have 'purely musical' ideas. Tormis is a real master of large-scale choral composition. His music is often connected with ancient folk songs of Estonian and other Balto-Finnic peoples.
