Republic of Chile Republic of Chile is a country in South America occupying a long and narrow coastal strip wedged between the Andes mountains and the Pacific Ocean. Chile's unusual, ribbon-like shape -- 4,300 kilometres long and on average 175 kilometres wide -- has given it a hugely varied climate, ranging from the world's driest desert -- the Atacama -- in the north, through a Mediterranean climate in the centre, to a snow-prone Alpine climate in the south, with glaciers, fjords and lakes. The Pacific forms the country's entire western border, with a coastline that stretches over 6,435 kilometres.
Hauaplat s Arthur Honegger (1892- 1955) Honegger veetis lapsepõlve Sveitsis, algul olid tema muusikaõpingud küllalt lünklikud. Süsteemse muusikahariduse sai ta Pariisi konservatooriumis (1911- 1914). Seal kohtus ta ka Kuuiku teiste liikmetega. Õpingujärgsetel aastatel pühendus Honegger kammermuusikale, kirjutades esimese keelpillikvarteti (1917), kaks sonaati viiulile ja klaverile (vastavalt 1918 ja 1919) ning mitmeid klaveri- ja oreliteoseid. Juba sel ajal avaldas Honeggeri võime töötada korraga mitme teose kallal, millest kujunes hiljem välja harjumus.
