The Alba Records disc Veljo Tormis - Vision of Estonia I can be ordered from http://www.albarecords.fi/. It is also available through most of the Amazon franchise online stores such as http://www.amazon.com/ http://www.amazon.co.uk/ http://www.amazon.co.jp/ http://www.amazon.de/ and http://www.amazon.fr/.
The Artists Only Records disc Veljo Tormis - Muistsed Hääled/Ancient Voices is available through most of the Amazon franchise stores such as http://www.amazon.com/ http://www.amazon.co.jp/ http://www.amazon.co.uk/ http://www.amazon.fr/ (www.amazon.de seems to be out of stock).
Information on the distribution of the discs Årstider - Seasons and OD Highlights is available from http://www.bis.se/. Check there under BIS Distributors for distribution information for your country.
The Carus-Verlag disc Veljo Tormis: Laulu palju - Liederhaufen - Heaps of Songs can be purchased online direct from http://www.carus-verlag.com/. Carus-Verlag CDs are also widely distributed and should be available in all major music stores with large classical music departments. They should also be available from many of the major online CD retailers such as http://www.amazon.com/ http://www.amazon.co.uk/ http://www.amazon.fr/ http://www.amazon.de/ http://www.borders.com/ http://www.cdnow.com/ http://www.cduniverse.com/ http://www.fnac.fr/ http://www.musicexpress.com/ http://www.hbdirect.com/ http://www.hmv.com/ http://www.jpc.de/ http://www.towerrecords.com/ and http://www.virginmega.com/. Note that the preceding list is alphabetical and no one store is necessarily to be preferred over another but obviously shipping costs would be lower for North American orders from the .com stores and Europeans may wish to order from .de(Germany), .fr(France) or .uk(United Kingdom) stores. Note that the store http://www.musicexpress.com/ is actually in The Netherlands.
The Collins Classics disc BBC Singers - Pärt / Tormis is no longer in print as the company Collins Classics is no longer in business. It is recommended that you search in classical music stores that deal in cut-out/deleted discs and used CD stores in general.
The ECM discs Veljo Tormis - Forgotten Peoples, Veljo Tormis - Litany to Thunder, The Hilliard Ensemble - A Hilliard Songbook - New Music for Voices and The Hilliard Ensemble/Jan Garbarek - Mnemosyne can be purchased online direct from http://www.ecmrecords.com/. Note also that, as of this writing (April 2003), ECM is still selling copies of the 2-LP edition of Forgotten Peoples, which features a 12" by 12" booklet version of the album notes and lyrics. ECM Records are also widely distributed (through Universal Music Group) and should be available in all major music stores with large jazz/classical music departments.

The Eesti Raadio discs are only available in Estonia. Still searching for an online retailer.
The Finlandia CDs with Veljo Tormis music (too numerous to list here) are widely distributed (they are part of the Warner Music conglomerate) and should be available in all major music stores with large classical music departments.
