Kristi Mühling- kannel.
Mirjam Tally (1976) is one of the younger generation´s most exceptional composers in Estonia. Her music is full of playful contrasts and combines the witty, dramatic and poetic use of sound. "Structures" was comissioned by the kannel player Kristi Mühling, which incited the composer´s fascination with the kannel as an instrument.

Rein Rannap (1953) is versatile pianist, composer and inmproviser. He has been the founder and member of many rock bands and is more widely known for his pop songs, but he has also composed postmodernly diverse art music for various instruments.

CD "Una Corda" (2011)
Heino Eller (1887- 1970) was one of the fathers of professional Estonian compostition and one of its most importatnt lead figures. He gave birth to the national musical language that combined the classical and romantic tradition,modernist means of expression and the intonations of folk music.. "Bells" were inpired by the bells of  St Paul Church in Tartu.

Helena Tulve (1972)is one of the most renowed contemporary Estonian composers. Her musical vision focuses on melody, which is enriched by special performance techniques and sound colours. Very often, the atmosphere of her Works refers to the experience of metaphysical existence. 

Helena Tulve "Silmajad" (Beholders)for Una Corda (2006/2009)

CD "Una Corda" (2011)
Ester Mägi (1922) "A tre" for violin, guitar and cello, Una Corda´s  arrengement. 
Ester Mägi is one of a few outstanding female composers from her generation in Estonian music, whose music is primarly characterised ny clear logic of form, transparent sound and laconic motifs that mainly stem from or resemble Estonian folk music.
The chamber work "A tre", which was composed in the year Estonia regained its independence, received the award for Estonia´s best chamber composition in 1991.

Ensemble UNA CORDA (Estonia)  

Kristi Mühling (kannel) 
Liis Viira (harp) 
Ene Nael (harpsichord)  

Una Corda is an ensemble with a unique composition, encompassing three multi-string instruments: the harp, kannel and harpsichord. Despite the different historical background and characteristic timbres of the instruments, they are similar in terms of playing by plucking and intimate sound. Una Corda presents original compositions as well as Una Corda’s arrangements of Estonian music from the past century, bringing these valuable classical compositions into new light. 
Una Corda’s first concert took place in 2009. Since then, the ensemble has given many concerts and, in cooperation with Klassikaraadio, Una Corda have recorded music for Estonian public broadcast.  

In January 2012, Una Corda released their first studio album UNA CORDA.
