A living archive of sound and vision from composer Virko Baley—whose life spans continents, centuries, and revolutions in music. These videos trace the arc of a career forged in exile and refined in concert halls, classrooms, and recording studios.
From operas haunted by history to chamber works that whisper and rage, each clip is a moving picture in every sense: emotionally charged, artistically restless, and always in motion.
Watch performances, interviews, and behind-the-score glimpses into a composer who’s still composing, still conducting, still questioning. Because some artists don’t retire—they just change tempo.
This video archive is organized into playlists—each one a thematic thread through Virko Baley’s creative life. Some highlight major works, others gather performances, interviews, or moments of artistic reflection.
The playlists offer a guided way to explore the composer’s evolving voice across decades, disciplines, and collaborations. Whether diving deep or browsing lightly, each collection invites discovery, resonance, and motion.
Start anywhere. The music moves.
