About
Come and see this memorial to one of Estonia’s most famous composers, who grew up in Laane County - Cyrillus Kreek (1889-1962). The memorial, which was created by Aime Kuulbusch, is located in front of the composer’s former home, on the shores of Vaikese Bay. Did you know...?*The majority of Kreek's works were created in Haapsalu.*Kreek's most important 'secret service' was composing sacred music and arranging sacred folk songs and choral canons, whilst publicly maintaining a standoffish attitude towards the church.
