About this Event

Jarek Kasar, also known as Chalice, is from Tartu. He began his music career as a rapper and has evolved into a multi-faceted, unique and captivating performer over the years. His musical journey has taken him into genre-crossing, new sonic territory; from experimental, eclectic compositions which draw on musical traditions from around the world, such as African traditional music, all the way to contemporary electronic rock.

His song “Minu inimesed” (My People), which premiered at the Estonian Independence Day ceremony in 2006, was declared by Postimees newspaper as the secondary ceremonial speech in addition to the president’s speech. This deeply touching piece was sung by thousands at the 2007 10th Youth Song Festival.

What can you expect to hear at the concert? Kasar himself describes it as a “best-of” of his repertoire over the years; a delightful, musical hodgepodge. It’ll be an in-depth, intimate exploration of his collection of catchy melodies and lyrics.
