TEM celebrates its 70th Anniversary in 2020.  It is the only expatriate Estonian Male Voice Choir still active outside Estonia.  The current complement of 25-32 singers performs both traditional and contemporary music.  During the fifties & sixties choir membership exceeded one hundred.

The choir regularly performed at venues such as Massey Hall in Toronto, and was recognised by its appointment as the Ontario representative at the Manitoba Centennial in 1970.

TEM rehearses weekly at the Estonian House in Toronto.  It performs fall and spring concerts and participates at various functions within the Estonian-Canadian Community in Toronto.

The choir has toured Estonia and participated in many of its National Song Festivals.
