Heinavanker (The Haywain), an early music vocal group from Tallinn, Estonia, has performed since 1996 under the artistic direction of Margo Kölar, of the Music Academy of Estonia. The ensemble is named after the famous altarpiece by Hieronymus Bosch, which depicts a huge wagonload of hay rolling through a world vexed by agony and greed. From atop the haywain, angels make beautiful music to heal the misery below.

The program will include high church music by English composers Taverner, Tallis and Frye, as well as Estonian folk hymns from simple country farmhouses. The origin of these folk hymns is obscure – the region has seen different cultural and religious influences over time. Angels sing in many styles.



Heinavanker ensemble soothes the spirit.”
