PLMF Music Trust
PLMF Music Trust was inaugurated on 7 February 2003 to support the development of Estonian musicians by organizing master classes, opportunities to perform and by introducing them internationally. The founders of the trust decided to name it after the opera singer Pille Lill.[1]
In 2004 the PLMF introduced two series of classical chamber-music concerts, performed throughout Estonia: Master School[2][3] and Music of the Soul[4][5] which present Estonian top soloists in our largest towns and smallest villages. The Youth Master School series of concerts presents young talents of the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre.[6] Since 2009 concerts are organized in other countries as well in cooperation with the partners from these countries.
