Olaf Kopvillem 100: Accompanied by Song — Live in Concert

Experience Estonian music across generations and genres with artists from Estonia, Canada and Australia, celebrating Olaf Kopvillem's legacy with Vaiko Eplik (Estonia), Olev Muska (Australia), Erik Laar (Canada), Katariina Tirmaste (Estonia) and more!

A century after the birth of Olaf Kopvillem, four contemporary artists come together for an evening of music that crosses borders, generations and genres.

The concert is part of Olaf Kopvillem 100: Accompanied by Song (Saatis neid laul), a November 6–7 conference and music programme presented by VEMU Estonian Museum Canada. Bringing together researchers and musicians from Canada, Estonia and Australia, the gathering explores the history of Estonian music abroad and the ways artists continue to reinvent and share that heritage today.

Friday night's lineup reflects that spirit: from inventive pop and electronic experimentation to turntablism and contemporary folk. Whether you have a personal connection to Estonia or are simply curious to discover something new, join us for a celebration of music's power to connect people across distances and generations.

General Admission: $30
Youth (35 & under): $15
