In the 1960s, Jaan Rääts (b. 1932) brought into Estonian music a markedly anti-Romantic, neo-classicist orientation. Unlike many others, Rääts found his musical language relatively quickly and has broadly stayed true to it until today. His prolific work for piano includes the 24-piece Marginalia, dedicated to Kalle Randalu and the Electronic Sonata, the first work of its kind released on LP in Estonia, heard here on synthesizer, later arranged for two pianos.
