ESTONIAN SYMPHONIC MUSIC. THE FIRST CENTURY 1896-1996.

symphonies, mixed with other genres, sometimes turned into divertissements, light entertainment, into collage etc. However, this register includes compositions that Estonians have a right to be proud of and due to the industrious and meritorious work of the conductor Neeme Järvi, have been popularised all over the world and has a firm place in the musical production of the Twentieth century. The symphony is not a worn out genre, it still synthesises many facets of human nature, eternal polarised elements, the struggle between them and the differing results. To deny a symphonic way of thinking and expression is to deny human feeling and thought. Several of the works named have proven their worth: “We have music in such abundance that even if three fourths are not especially captivating, the remaining fourth offers sufficient support to the soul. And that is a lot.”1 19082 Artur Lemba. First Symphony
