Press release | Estelon, renowned for its dedication to high-fidelity sound and exceptional craftsmanship, has donated its latest Aura loudspeakers to the Arvo Pärt Centre. Installed in the main exhibition space, the speakers bring the permanent exhibition When you seek from almost nothing to life, allowing visitors to experience Arvo Pärt’s music in its purest form. Every subtle nuance of Pärt’s compositions is faithfully reproduced, ensuring that the music’s depth and clarity are fully appreciated.
The Aura loudspeakers replace the Estelon YB speakers provided in 2018, when the Centre opened in its new building. Since then, nearly 180,000 visitors have experienced Arvo Pärt’s music through Estelon’s precision-engineered speakers, enjoying sound without compromise. “I am very pleased about this and hope that the new loudspeakers will bring joy to just as many music lovers,” said Michael Pärt, Chairman of the Board of the Arvo Pärt Centre.
Estelon’s speakers also play a key role in the Centre’s educational programmes, helping students of all ages explore and understand Pärt’s unique sound world. “I am very grateful that the Centre has partners like Estelon, with whom we share a similar sensibility and set of values. We have been walking this shared path for over seven years, and the cooperation has been mutually enriching,” added Michael Pärt.

With this latest contribution, Estelon continues to support the Arvo Pärt Centre in its mission to connect audiences with the music of one of the world’s most celebrated composers, elevating every listening experience with uncompromising sound quality.
