Interspersed with clouds of music colours and masterful cadences, the violin concerto Distant Light by Pēteris Vasks carries a glimmer of hope that permeates the composer's oeuvre. Written in 1997 for the Salzburg Festival and dedicated to the great violinist and author's friend Gidon Kremer, the piece has been performed dozens of times over 25 years, including for several recordings and even ballet performances. This evening, it will be interpreted by a special guest – Triin Ruubel, the first violin of the Estonian National Symphony Orchestra.

Phantasma is one of the latest opuses by the composer Erkki-Sven Tüür. As suggested by its title, the work is a vision and an elusive flight of imagination.

Similarly, the beginning of Ludwig van Beethoven's Fourth Symphony in B♭ major (1807) is somewhat veiled and distant, yet it is soon replaced by lightness, emotional directness, and openness characteristic of the composer.
