worthlessness of any musical composition. I am writing about Estonian symphonists and symphonism. What do I mean by this term? For example, one can speak of the symphonism of Eduard Tubin, Artur Kapp and Arvo Pärt. In its best and exact sense symphonism means the creation of a sublime philosophical idea in music in an intense extensive and developing form. Symphonism is a way of thinking through the medium of music and therefore perhaps the most prefect way in its singularity. Only an artist whose inner world is rich in thought and perception and who is endowed with a strong faculty of logical thinking and powerful fantasy, can develop into a symphonist. In symphonism both the dynamics of inner and outer world conflicts, collisions and dialectics springing from the synthesis of opposing forces are revealed.

Holidays, Festivals, Cultural events TALLINN - If you're looking for entertainment in Estonia this summer, you are really spoiled for choice.

Just as July becomes August, the seaside town of Haapsalu will host a grand spectacle of rural Estonian entertainment. The White Lady Days is a summer celebration filled with amusement for all the family. Held in and around the remains of the Teutonic-knights-era castles, the fair combines enchanting medieval legends with modern countryside charm to create a comprehensive experience of Estonia beyond the big cities. But the legend of the White Lady of Haapsalu, which is at the heart of the festival, is perhaps the most famous tall tale of the many that are so abundant in Estonia's folklore. It is the story of a poor girl who falls in love with the son of the
greatly appreciated thanks to the charisma and hard work of its long-time ex- conductor Tõnu Kaljuste and Paul Hillier. Male voice and boys' choirs are equally popular. There are also many pop singers and groups such as Koit Toome, Eda- Ines Etti, Vanilla Ninja, Terminaator, Bedwetters and Traffic. In the middle of the 19th century F. R. Kreutzvald published the national epic Kalevipoeg, based on themes from Estonian folklore. Then national art began to develop. The first Estonian born artist, Johann Köler, depicted Estonian peasants and the countryside in his paintings. August Weizenberg was the first Estonian born sculptor. He and Köler are considered to be the founders of Estonian national art. Tallinn and Tartu are the biggest cultural centres. The majority of higher education establishments are also in these towns. 10.Sports The first Estonian mentioned in the Guinness Book of Records was a sportsman.
Portraitures remained at the forefront because the rich could thusly display their status and because it was less "frivolous" than other forms of painting. In early-C18, Baroque was imitated (handsome settings, rich chiaroscuro, rich color and painterly execution). Paintings became gradually more elaborate. During mid-C18, the new immigrants introduced the style of Rococo (gracious, charming and pretty). Exemplary artist. John Singleton Copley (late-C18). He was self-taught and pursued truth in the characters of his sitters and their surroundings. He emphasized the hands of his sitters. After moving to England, he adopted history paintings. Subsidiary artists: Thomas Smith, the Gansevoort Limner, John Smibert, Robert Feke, John Wollaston, Joseph Blackburn, Benjamin West. Republican Period Portraiture. The Revolutionary War sparked the interest in portraits of national heroes and statesmen

The feeling of intolerable loneliness. One such story is "The Man of the Crowd" the secret of a man who seems to be strangely alienated from human fellowship, the narrator chases the man, still the man remains a mystery. The narrator's feverish in the man's identity symbolises human desire for selfdiscovery. Poe adored the idea of the Doppelganger, uses this motif to stress the complexity of human nature. Another Poe's favourite topic is the impossibility for the artist to escape from the practical world "William Wilson", something haunts the narrator to chase him from country to country, he's been haunted by himself. The theme of Death fascinated Poe. He's interested in death with all its horrors. "Berenice" a man digs out the body of his dead pride, pulls out her teeth. Metempsychosis the belief in the transmigration of the soul. "Ligea" a revenant (she has returned from earlier ages, centuries). Arabesque

GRAFFITI AND STREET ART ARE NOT THE SAME THING While graffiti artists only work with spray paint and pride themselves on knowing their way around a can of the stuff, street artists use other media to create their pieces. “Graffiti artists really pride themselves on what we call can control,” says Cameron Moberg, 33, a graffiti artist and Street Art Throwdown contestant from San Francisco, California. “We take pride in not needing a stencil and really working on our can skills, that’s where the divide originally came from. But with good content coming out, there’s some more respect. You even see some collaboration between street artists and graffiti artists.” [http://mentalfloss.com/article/61441/12-things-you-probably-didnt-know-about-street-art] 14.01.18) 3.1.
