The XIX dance festival was sold out, with 3,000 additional tickets sold in June due to popular demand. More than 10,000 dancers took part in the three performances titled "Puudutus" (Touch) and based on a fairy tale by Sven Weidebaum.
The first concert, was called “Touched by Time”, a "journey in song" through the history of the festival. The second concert was called “Time to Touch”, with staples of the song festival and a mix of new works, attracted around 100,000 spectators each. There were 40,000 participants - made up of choral groups and musicians - performing at the second concert, ETV reported on Sunday.
The song “Puudutus” (Touch), by Tõnu Kõrvits, was created specifically for the festival with lyrics by poet Kristiina Ehin. It was so popular that it was performed twice by the singers and twice more at the end of the festival.
