XII Mustjala music festival

Tanel Ruben: Collected Riches/Kogutud rikkus is the third, and at the moment last, album with Tanel being the composer, producer and drummer.
Already the album’s title indicates a wider selection of music and a broad approach to life. Whereas Tanel has also always been interested in electronic music, it can be said that one can hear a fusion of acoustic and electronic music, the mainstream and the non-mainstream, jazz and non-jazz on all albums produced by him.

In April 2008, Tanel was awarded the title of Estonia’s jazz musician of the year – the Elion Jazz Award, which is issued by Elion, a telecommunications company, and Jazzkaar, the international jazz festival. This is the most prestigious jazz-related acknowledgement in Estonia.
