'Midnight Sun' is the phenomenon of the never-setting sun that occurs above the Arctic Circle, captured by Kristjan Järvi in his timeless rock anthem and interpreted by the Baltic Sea Philharmonic. They don’t care about traditional categories and transform classical music into the present times. Mari Meentalo's unique improvisations on the Estonian bagpipes add to it another dimension. The music video captures the magical light and wonder of the North, with monochrome images of nature and landscapes combining an eyecatching graphical design comprising constantly moving and changing lines, points and shapes. Feel the North, feel the music bursting with light, wonder and nature.
