2012.3.30. Estonia - Heino Eller
Heino Eller (7 March 1887 – 16 June 1970), an Estonian composer and
music teacher, graduated from the St Petersburg Conservatory,
specialising in composition and music theory. In 1920 he returned to
Estonia and set down to work at the Tartu Higher Music School as a
teacher of theory and composition, laying the basis to a new generation
of Estonian musicians whose bright names, such as Eduard Tubin, Alfred
Karindi, Richard Ritsing, Karl Leichter, Olav Roots and Eduard Oja have
become known as Eller's Tartu school. Since 1940 Heino Eller worked as
professor of composition at Tallinn State Conservatory, where his pupils
were the composers Villem Kapp, Jaan Rääts, Arvo Pärt, Lepo Sumera,
Heino Jürisalu, Uno Naissoo, Anatoli Gar¹nek, Boris Kõrver, Valter
Ojakäär and Alo Põldmäe. Heino Eller's best-known works include the
symphonic poems Koit (Daybreak) and Videvik (Twilight) as well as the
beautiful Kodumaine viis (Homeland Tune) both as a piano and a string
orchestra work. He has written three symphonies, a violin concerto,
works for different instrumental groups and solo instruments. Heino
Eller's symphonic music has a lot in common with the work of the
brightest representatives of European symphonism, such as Bruckner,
Sibelius and others. Eller's student, Eduard Tubin, continued the same
line in Estonian music. Eller has been called a real Estonian composer
and the music he created belongs to the golden treasury of Estonian
national musical composition.
