Notes & Reviews:

East meets West on this new recording, as two great singing traditions are brought together to thrilling effect. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the three Baltic States have emerged as powerhouses of choral innovation and imagination. Mike Brewer and the NYCGB bring all their customary fervor and virtuosity to bear on this program of masterworks from three of Europe's smallest, yet musically richest, countries.
