Description:
Born in Estonia Maarika Järvi has lived in Spain and France after emigrating to the United States in 1980 with her family, today known as a family of noted musicians. 'Chant Of The Celestial Lake' is a love story reflecting Asian legends. Väähi paints celestial landscapes using exotic orchestral colours and scales. The endless journey through the inner realms of the soul is being reflected in this music. The title 'Leonides' refers to the meteor current from the direction of the Leo constellation, a kind of star shower every year in the middle of November. The name of this current work of music has been inspired by the observation of the described phenomenon. The soloist embodies an observer fascinated by the celestial spectacle.
