सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि

The guitar is central to the 'Singing Revolution' and modern folk music. Many Estonians learn it to participate in community singing. There is a strong tradition of 'singer-songwriters' (autorilaul) where the guitar is the primary instrument for storytelling. Like elsewhere, playing guitar is seen as a 'cool' hobby in Estonia, often associated with forming bands in high school. Music schools (muusikakoolid) are very popular in Estonia, and guitar is one of the most competitive subjects.
