Xvii Suure-Jaani Muusikafestival 17.–23 SUURE-JAANI VALD Heliloojatele Kappidele pühendatud XVII SUURE-JAANI MUUSIKAFESTIVAL 17.–23. juuni 2014 Kunstiline juht prof Andres Uibo Head muusikasõbrad! Suure-Jaani muusikafestival toimub tänavu juba XVIII korda ja mitte ilma- asjata. Juba esimesest korrast, mil tuldi kokku tähistamaks ja austamaks heliloojate Kappide suuri juubeleid ja elutööd, teadsid nii korraldajad kui ka osalejad, et sündinud on midagi olulist. Sündmus, mis igal aastal toob kohale tuhandeid muusikaarmastajaid, kelle hinged leiavad siin kosutust, on oma terviklikkuses ning muusikute ja kuulajate vahel tekkiva sünergia poolest tõeliselt lummav. Eriti tänuväärseks pean asjaolu, et Suure-Jaani muusikafestival pakub külastajaile lisaks kontserdielamustele ka põnevaid kontserdikohti, tutvustab meie kultuurilugu, imelist loodust ning ainukordseid paiku siin Eestimaa südames. Elamused sünnivad kõigi meelte koostöös – kujutlege end näiteks Olustvere leivakotta, kus kaunist muusikat täiendab ninna- tungiv värske leiva hõng; või Hüpassaare rabasaarele, kus kõik osalejad tunnevad üheskoos, et just nii peaksidki inimene, loodus ja muusika koos olema ja elama. Soovin kõigile eredaid, meeldejäävaid elamusi Suure- Jaanis, lugude, looduse ja laulude keskel! Laine Randjärv Riigikogu aseesimees Head Suure-Jaani vaimulikul laulupäeval osalejad! Pidada Suure-Jaani muusikafestivali raames vaimulikku laulupäeva on väga asjakohane ja tänuväärne. On ju Suure-Jaaniga seotud nimekad heliloojad ja nende looming väga tihedalt seotud kirikuga. Tänavu, kui möödub sada aastat professor Hugo Lepnurme sünnist, ei saa jätta märkimata, et temagi võttis osa enamikust nõukogude ajal Suure-Jaanis korraldatud kiriklikest muusikaüritustest ja vaimulikest laulupäevadest. Mäletan kaunist juuni- hommikut, kui ta eaka mehena ette teatamata Olustvere raudteejaamast Suure-Jaani kirikuni jalutas – et looduse ilu nautida, nagu ta ise sõnas. Tõepoolest – siinsed kaunid paigad, auväärne muusikakultuur ja kirgas pühakoda tiivustavad, täidavad südamed tänu ja rõõmuga, panevad hingekeeled helisema ja kannavad mõtted jumalikesse kõrgustesse. Tänavusel vaimulikul laulupäeval võime sellest kõigest taas osa saada. Tänu väga paljudele abilistele, lauljatele, muusikutele ja muusikasõpra- dele, kõigile osavõtjatele, kes oma südametule selles päevas ühendavad! Olgu vaimulik laulupäev ilusaks jah-vastuseks meie rahva põhjapanevale küsimusele: “Kas siis selle maa keel laulu tuules ei või taevani tõustes üles igavikku omale otsida?” Õnnistusrikast laulupäeva soovides EELK peapiiskop Andres Põder Head Suure-Jaani muusikafestivali külalised ja esinejad! Käesoleva aasta suvel toimub juba 17. korda Suure-Jaani muusikafestival – seekord jälle koos üle-eestilise vaimuliku laulupäevaga. See vaim ja need juured, mida on siinsesse pinnasesse külvanud Kappide pereliikmed ja Mart Saar koos teiste oma aja tublide aatekaaslastega, on tugevad. Eesti Kontsert ja festivali kunstiline juht Andres Uibo on andnud üritusele sisu ja näo. Igal aastal uued esinejad, igal aastal on lisandunud mõni uus esine- mispaik. Lisandunud on ka uusi ettevõtmisi: teist aastat järjest on kavas lastepäev – seekord Suure-Jaani muusikastuudio eestvedamisel. Oleme kaasanud kohalikke tublisid peresid avama külalistele oma kodusid – aiakohvikutes pakutakse kohvi ja kooki, vaadata saab näitusi ja kuulata oma kuulsusi. Festivali kuulajaskond on tublisti laienenud, mitte ainult kohalik publik, vaid ka kaugemalt tulnud on saanud hea muusikaelamuse ja sõbaliku vastuvõtu osaliseks, olgu kontserdipaigaks Suure-Jaani gümnaasium, Hüpassaare raba, kirik, laululava, Olustvere loss, kohvik Arturi Juures või mõni aiakohvik. Suur tänu korraldajatele ja külalistele, kes on olnud selle ilusa traditsiooni hoidjad ja edasiviijad! Suure-Jaani muusikafestival on leidnud kindla koha meie piirkonna ja Eesti Kontserdi aastakavas. Meeldivaid festivalielamusi Suure-Jaanis! Tõnu Aavasalu Suure-Jaani vallavanem SKEEM ARTUR KAPI ÜHINGU MAJAST EHK ANDEKOJAST Teeme Suure-Jaani andekoja! Kolmteist aastat tagasi asutatud Rahvusvahelise Artur Kapp’i Ühingu eesmärk on Suure-Jaani piirkonnaga seotud loovisikute elu ja tegevuse tutvustamine. Seeläbi loodab ühing aidata kaasa siinse kandi elu edendamisele. 2005. aastal osteti ühingu liikme, saksa muusikakirjastaja Horst Schuberti abiga pankroti- pesast maja aadressil J. Köleri 2. Punasest telliskivist hoones kohviku Arturi Juures kõrvalkrundil oli varem kauplus, ärklikorrusel korterid. Siiani on majale kasutust leitud vaid ühel nädalal aastas: siin töötab Suure-Jaani muusikafesti- vali ajal infopunkt ning vaadata saab fotonäitust eelmise aasta festivalist. Aastaid peeti plaani maja renoveerida ning teha sellest muusikute kodu: väikese saali ja helisalvestusstuudioga loomemaja-hostel. Praegu ollakse idee teostami- sele lähemal kui kunagi varem: käsil on projekteerimistööd, mida teeb EA Reng AS Hillar Joone juhtimisel. Arhitektuurse lahenduse tegi nimekas Taani arhitekt Erik Nobel. Suure-Jaani kesklinna, kauni paisjärve kaldale tuleb Suure-Jaani andekoda. Eks ole plaanis siia nii andeid koondada kui siin ka õpetust ja elamusi anda. Majja on planeeritud saal, harjutus- ja tegevusruumid ning külalistoad. Kapi ühing saab endale bürooruumid. Kui praegu on majas üks korrus ja katusealused toad, siis tulevikus on siin kolm korrust: J. Köleri tänava poolt sisenejad satuvad teisele korru- sele, kohviku Arturi Juures poolt pääseb aga saali, mis läbib kahte korrust. Kolmandal ehk ärklikorrusel paikneb pool tosinat külalistuba. Majas on kavas anda muusikaharidust, korraldada näitusi ja kont- serte, näidata fi lme, pakkuda peatumisvõimalust kõigile, kes tegelevad loomemajandusega ning soovivad keskenduda loomingule. Soomaa lähedus peaks inspireerima nii muusika, kujutava kunsti, kirjanduse kui ka fi lmi ja fotoga tegelejaid kogu maailmast. Andekoja sisuga täitmisel on ühingul plaanis teha koostööd Suure-Jaani valla ja kultuurimajaga. Toetused Suure-Jaani andekoja väljaehitamiseks on oodatud Rahvusvahelise Artur Kapp’i Ühingu arvelduskontole EE151010220046949018 SEB pangas.

    Vance D. Wolverton Chair Emeritus, Department of Music California State University, Fullerton [email protected] MART SAAR ESTONIAN COMPOSER & POET Consolidating the Past, Initiating the Future Vance D. Wolverton art Saar (1882-1963) was one of the most important Estonian Mcomposers of art music, espe- cially choral music, of the late nineteenth to mid-twentieth century. He lived and composed through a period of exponential political changes in Estonia—not altogether unlike the upheaval accompanying the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1990/91—including the fi rst period of independence (1918-1939), the fi rst period of Soviet occupation (1939-1941), the Nazi occupation (1941-1944), and nearly half of the second period of Soviet occupation (1944- 1991). It is common knowledge that the Soviets strongly discouraged participation in religious observations and activities, including the com- position of sacred music. It is also clear that such signifi cant disruptions to the political fabric of the nation were bound to infl uence all aspects of society, including music. Mart Saar lived and composed through these momentous times, and his compositions are refl ective of them.

  • Estonian Song Celebration Movement and Its Leaders: the Story of Tuudur Vettik
    TRAMES, 2017, 21(71/66), 1, 79–94 ESTONIAN SONG CELEBRATION MOVEMENT AND ITS LEADERS: THE STORY OF TUUDUR VETTIK Laine Randjärv University of Tartu Abstract. This article focuses on the role and fate of some outstanding and creative intellectuals-choir leaders and composers in the Movement of the Estonian Song Celebra- tions. The position of song celebrations and that of the creative intellectuals – choir leaders in socio-political processes are examined in this research, looking at the years before and after WWII period and the years of Soviet annexation. One of the most remarkable personalities during this period was the conductor, composer and music teacher Tuudur Vettik. The article researches the way of becoming a leader of the popular cultural move- ment and tries to answer a question – did Tuudur Vettik become such kind of a leader of Song Celebrations through his methodological activity or pure charisma. This paper also tries to find out what kind of circumstances helped or obstructed him on this way. The article helps to fill a gap in the research of Estonian post-WWII choral music history, since the cultural policy of the period has been studied mostly from the aspects of literature, theatre and art. Keywords: historical research, Soviet cultural policy, ideological mental violence, intellectual resistance, Song Celebration Movement, Song Festival Ground, Song Celebration leaders, choral music, repertoire, conductor, Tuudur Vettik, Roland Laasmäe, Estonia https://doi.org/10.3176/tr.2017.1.06 1. Introduction The fact that the Song Celebrations form an important part of the Estonian culture, and constitute a pillar of our national identity is obvious to everyone in Estonia.

Kadriorg in Springtime (2) Kadriorg kevadel The Narva-Chaussee begins at the Viru Place (Russian market) and soon reaches what was probably the most beautiful and biggest park in Tallinn, the Kadriorg Park. The park and the baroque palace were designed and laid out as a summer residence in the years 1718-1723 on the command of Tsar Peter I and named in honour of Tsar Jekaterinental's wife (Ekaterinenthal or Catherinenthal = in Estonian Kadriorg). Experiencing spring in this baroque area with its buildings and green areas, is a great pleasure, which the Tallinners truly appreciate after a long and dark winter. 2. “Pioneers’ March” (8) “Pioneeride marss” The pieces in these booklets were composed in the years 1948 and 1949, in a time marches often took place. These marches even involved young pioneers. Eugen Kapp is the son of the even more important composer Artur Kapp (1878-1952). According to the Estonians, Artur was more of a good composer whereas his son Eugen rather more of a good communist.

  • Toccata Classics TOCC0209 Notes
    P HEINO ELLER: COMPLETE PIANO WORKS, VOLUME FOUR by Sten Lassmann Heino Eller1 (1887–1970) is one of the central figures in Estonian classical music, linking all parts of it into a coherent narrative from the inception of a national culture to the modern day. Born in Tartu, the centre of Estonian national awakening at the time, he spent his childhood surrounded by music, but his professional training began late. From 1907 until 1920 he studied in St Petersburg, a metropolis with a booming musical and artistic life, which made him a witness to one of history’s most radical revolutions. From 1920 to 1940 Eller taught composition in his home town, where he instigated the influential ‘Tartu School of Composition’, and from 1940 until his death in 1970 he was a professor of composition in the Tallinn Conservatoire, now the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre – a pedagogical career of exactly half a century, during which several generations of Estonian composers were educated under his tutelage, among them Eduard Tubin, Arvo Pärt and Lepo Sumera. Eller was a prolific composer whose works deserve wide attention. His music, distinguished by its austere expression, original use of modal harmony and a mastery of polyphonic texture, is largely lyrical with occasional epic undertones and gentle humour. In the context of Estonian classical music, where there is a strong predilection for vocal music, it is remarkable that Eller´s œuvre consists almost entirely of instrumental works. His best-known pieces are the symphonic poem Koit (‘Dawn’) and Kodumaine viis (‘Homeland Tune’) for string orchestra, the latter bearing a symbolic status in Estonian culture similar to that of Sibelius’ Finlandia for the Finns.

  • RUDOLF TOBIAS, FOUNDING FATHER of ESTONIAN CLASSICAL MUSIC by Martin Anderson
    RUDOLF TOBIAS, FOUNDING FATHER OF ESTONIAN CLASSICAL MUSIC by Martin Anderson Estonian folk-music has one of the oldest pedigrees in European culture: runo-song was first mentioned in the twelfth-century Gesta Danorum by the Danish scholar Saxo Grammaticus, but the traditions he described were already ancient by then. Estonian classical music, by contrast, was a late starter: centuries of domination by Swedes, Russians and Baltic Germans had served to suppress the development of Estonian culture as an artistic phenomenon. The beginnings of what is called the ‘Estonian national awakening’ can be found in the first publications of books in Estonian in the second half of the eighteenth century. A major milestone was the appearance in 1857–61 of Kalevipoeg, the Estonian national epic collated from folk-sources by Friedrich Reinhold Kreutzwald (1803–82); it is considered to mark the birth of Estonian literature as a genre. And Estonian classical music lagged even further behind Estonian literature, to the point where one man could initiate what is now, barely a century later, an astonishingly rich tradition. Rudolf Tobias was born on 29 May 1873 on the island of Hiiumaa, off the north-west coast of Estonia, in a village called Selja, in the parish of Käina, where his father was köster, a sort of organist- cum-cantor. (Since the centenary of his birth the large wooden thatched cottage in which he first saw day has housed the Rudolf Tobias Museum.) He had his first musical instruction from his father and began to compose at the age of nine. His later childhood was spent in western Estonia, attending school in Haapsalu on the coast from 1885; there he took piano lessons with a local teacher.
