Ehtne Eesti satiir, populaarsed näitlejad Egon Nuter ja Andrus Vaarik
Authentic Estonian Theater with popular actors Egon Nuter and Andrus Vaarik

Orav ja Meri

Nagu pealkirigi ütleb, mängivad näitlejad legendaarseid tegelasi Ivan Oravat ja Meri (Lennart Meri), kes sedapuhku kirjutuslauda pööningult alla veavad. See füüsiline töö käib aga korüfeedele ilmselt üle jõu ja nii nad sisustavadki aega kehakinnitamise, väikse napsi ja vaimuka vestlusega, mida eesti koomikute koorekihti kuuluvad Egon Nuter ja Andrus Vaarik laval säravalt esitavad.

Orav and Meri

This is an amusing story about the legendary Ivan Orav and Meri (Lennart Meri). The pair attempts to move a writing table down from the attic. Such an effort is too much for the codgers so they pause to eat, have a drink and engage in a witty conversation. Top Estonian comedians Egon Nuter and Andrus Vaarik are brilliant in their roles as these two historical figures. They have been playing these roles for years, but as there is room for improvisation every play is unique and special.

Lääneranniku Eesti Päevad 2011

Tähistame seda ka Portlandis:
Kustume kõiki, kes soovivad laulda eesti koorimuusikat sellel reedel, 20.augustil Washingtoni pargi Portland Rose Gardeni Shakespeare osasse. Koguneme kella 7:30 pl ja alustame laulmist 7:45 pl.
Esitame 8 tuntud eesti koorilaulu (vaata all olevat nimekirja).
Kõik lauljad olenemata oskustest on kutsutud! Rahvariiete kandmine pole oluline.

This Friday, on the 20th of August, all interested singers of Estonian choral music are encouraged to meet at the Shakespearean section of the Portland Rose Garden at Washington Park. We will gather at 7:30 PM and starting singing by 7:45 PM.
8 well known choral pieces will be performed. All singers, regardless of ability, are invited.
Since this is a mass-sing-a-long, folk costumes are optional. We will have Estonian flags at the event.

On this day, Estonia will celebrate its 19th year of the restoration of independence with a global choral event named “Ühtelaulmine”, or in English, “Singing in Unison”. Choirs will congregate in hundreds of locations throughout Estonia to sing 8 well-known and heartfelt choral songs. Everyone is encouraged to participate, regardless of their singing abilities.

This invitation to sing is extended throughout the globe.

The music selected by Estonia for this global event is as follows:

REPERTUAARIS ON:

1. R. Eespere „Ärkamise aeg“
2. R. Kull „Kodumaa“ (Kas tunned maad)
3. Ü. Vinter „Laul Põhjamaast“
4. P. Sarapik „Ta lendab mesipuu poole“
5. M. Härma „Tuljak“
6. V. Tormis „Ühtelaulmine“
7. F. Saebelmann „Sind Surmani“
8. K. A.Herman „Kaunimad laulud“

(Kungla Rahvas may replace one of the above selections, as necessary)

Kui võimalik võtke kaasa oma noodid. Mõned koopiad on võimalik saada ka kohapealt, kuid me pole kindlad kui palju on osalejaid.

If possible, please bring your own music to sing from. Some copies will be available, but we have no idea how many singers will participate in this event. We hope to have enough music for everyone who wishes to sing.

If you have any questions, please call me at 503-260-4739!
