BRANDON, MB – A chorale ensemble from Brandon University (BU) School of Music is en route to the Baltic countries of Latvia and Estonia, for a cross-cultural musical sharing with some of those countries’ most respected choir performers and conductors. The BU Chorale will also perform in historically significant venues, including the Niguliste Museum Concert Hall and Riga’s famed Cathedral, which both date back to the 13th century, and Estonia’s oldest and largest university, established in Tartu in 1632.
