Juunikuu on Jaanikuu...
Alates detsembrist on p�evad kukesammu v�rra pikemaks l�inud. Kes meist ei armastaks pikki valgeid suve�htuid, mil lihtsalt ei raatsi kodus istuda. Jaanikuu algab Los Angelese segakoori juubelikontserdiga 5. juunil. See �htu saab olema t�is nii vanu tuttavaid viise kui ka uusi laulu-�llatusi. Tulge kaasa elama Eesti filmitudeng Tanel Toom'i Filmiakadeemia Tudengiauhindade jagamisele 12. mail. See punase vaiba �ritus on eelregistreerimisel tasuta! Juuni kuusse j��b ka ajalooliselt kurb s�ndmus - k��ditamise aastap�ev, mida tahistatakse 13. juunil L�ti Majas. L�hme vaatame mis l�unanaabritel uudist! Jaanip�eva s�najalad puhkevad �ide Eesti Maja �uel 19. juunil. Uudistage mis toimus "Balts in Hollywood" �ritusel ja tundke r��mu ja uhkust meie leerilaste �le. Meie aukonsul Jaak Treimani kaudu saame teada millest r��giti P�hja-Ameerika aukonsulite kohtumisel Washington D.C.'s. Ja mis k�ige t�htsam - tulge ja l��ge kaasa! Peale Jaanip�eva hakkavad p�evad j�lle kukesammu v�rra l�hemaks minema...

The Month of June is "Jaanikuu"....
Beginning toward the end of December, little by little, minute by minute, step by step, the days of winter have gotten longer.  And is there anyone who, with the advent of the long summer day evenings, wouldn't rather spend them anywhere, other than sitting at home?  "Jaanikuu" begins with the 60th Anniversary concert of the Los Angeles Estonian Mixed Choir on June 5th.  The evening will be filled with songs of nostalgia from times gone by to popular tunes of today as well as surprises.  Come join us and enjoy the presentation to Tanel Toom of an award from the Student Film Academy on the 12th  of June.   This red carpet event is free upon pre-registration.   Sadly, June also harbors a tragic historic event - the day of deportation which will be commemorated on June 13th at the Latvian House.  Let's go see how our neighbors to the south are doing!  The fernblooms of "jaanip�ev" will burst into flower at the Estonian Grounds on June 19th.  Familiarize yourselves with what happened at the "Balts In Hollywood" event and let your feelings of pride and joy shine for our recently confirmed youth.  Our Honorary Consul, Jaak Treiman, brings us up to date on what happened at the North American Honorary Consuls' meeting in Washington, D.C.  And most importantly - come and join with us!  
After "Jaanip�ev," the days will again start to grow shorter.

S�dames, meeles, laulus ja keeles, Eesti mu s�nnimaa!


Los Angelese Eesti segakoor linnulennult:
LES loodi: 1949
Koori esimene dirigent: Rein Neggo
K�ige staazikam laulja: Kuno Lill
K�ige noorem laulja: Mari-Liis Pallo
K�ige rohkem lauljaid: umbes 60
Hetkel lauljaid: t�pselt 21
Praegune dirigent: Kaie Pallo
Koori lemmiklaulud: K. Unt "�ksteist peab hoidma" ja P. Sarapik "Ta lendab mesipuu poole"
Koor kui orkester: kamba peale m�ngitkase klarnetit, saksofoni, klaverit, kannelt, kitarri ja akordioni.

Los Angelese segakoori kauaaegne dirigent Jaak Kukk on Westholmi G�mnaasiumi poiss. Kodus klaverit klimberdades �ppis ta selle instrumendi m�ngu pikapeale ise selgeks. T�sisema muusikahuvi p�ris ta aga oma g�mnaasiumi muusika�petajalt Tuudur Vettik'ult. Kooli ajal laulis ta oma kooli kooris ning m�ngis tsellot g�mnaasiumi orkestris ja Tallinna Keskkoolidevahelises S�mfooniaorkestris, mille tegevus katkes s�ja ajal. S�jakeerises sattus noormees Saksamaale, kus ta alustas Erlangeni �likooli juures muusikateooria �pinguid. S�jap�genikuna Ameerika �hendriikidesse j�udes ka see koolitee katkes...

Muusika on Jaak Kukk'e jaoks alati olnud tema esimene armastus. Ameerikas elades tuli aga ka praktiliselt m�elda, ning �ppida endale elukutse, millega endale elatist teenida. Nii sai Jaagust edukas arhitekt. Mitme m�juka arhitektuurib�roo juures projekti arthitektina t��tades valmisid tema projektidena mitmed haiglad ja meditsiinihooned.

1949 a. loodi San Fransisco's eesti segakoor, mida noor muusikamees Jaak Kukk juhatama asus. Selle koori eestotsas sai oldud 5 aastat. 1957 a. Los Angelesse kolides rakendas ta oma musikaalset talenti Los Angelese segakoori juhatama asudes, seda Rein Neggo'ga kahasse. Paari aasta m��dudes laulis Los Angelese segakoor vaid tema taktikepi all edasi. Koori elus on on paremaid ja halvemaid aegu. Koori �itseajal laulis �htsetes ridades ligi 60 lauljat. Koori 25. juubeli puhul anti lausa v�lja segakoori juubeliplaat. Peale 46 aastat koori dirigendina andis 2003 a. Jaak Kukk oma taktikepi �le koori praegusele dirigendile Kaie Pallo'le. Koori k�rghetkedeks peab Jaak Kukk k�iki L��neranniku Eesti P�evi, kus Los Angelese segakoor kaasa on l��nud. Samuti traditsiooniks kujunenud koori kevadkontserte. Aastaid on segakoor s�prust pidanud saksa naiskooriga "Frohsinn". Kuigi kauneid kooriteoseid on palju, peab ta oma lemmikuks oma esimese muusika�petaja Tuudur Vettiku "Nokt�rni", mida ta 1999. a. Los Angeleses toimunud L��neranniku P�evadel dirigeerida �nnestus.

Kaie Pallo on p�rit V�rust. Ta kasvas �les muusikat armastavas peres, kus �heltki perekondlikult �rituselt ei puudunud laul ega muusika. Tema muusikapisik on p�rit emapoolsetelt vanavanematelt, kes laulsid ja m�ngisid erinevaid pille. Vanaisa klaverim�ng insipireeris noort Kaiet niiv�rd, et ise klaveri taha istudes seal samas k�iki lugusid j�rgi m�ngida proovis. Vanaema soov oli, et Kaie hakkaks klaverit �ppima. Peagi leidis ta end koos emaga muusikakooli sisseastumiseksamitelt. Tema muusikaline teekond saigi alguse V�ru Lastemuuskakoolist, mille l�petades l�ks ta �ppima Viljandi Kultuurikooli, mis praegu Viljandi Kultuurikolledzi nime kannab. Tema erialaks sai koorijuhtimine. Koorijuhtimise �pingud j�tkusid ka Tallinna Konsistooriumi muusikaosakonnas, kus k�ll tema p�hierialaks sai orel.
Kaiet k�idab koorijuhtimise juures dirigendi ja lauljate vaheline kontakt. Tema suurim r��m on kui koor oma lauluga suudab v�ljendada seda, mida ta n�idata p��dis ja laulust ootas. Talle meeldib dirigeerida hoogsaid ja l�busaid laule. Kaie lemmikuteks on K. A. Hermanni, M. H�rma, A. Kunileid ja S�belman. Kaie usub ja loodab, et koorilaul elab eestlaste s�dames veel kaua, kaua...

The choir as an orchestra:  Various members play clarinet, saxophone, piano, guitar, accordion and zither

Longtime Los Angeles Estonian Mixed Choir director, Jaak Kukk, is a graduate of Westholm Gymnasium, a high-class secondary school.  Playing around on the keyboard at home, he taught himself to play the piano.  More serious musical studies followed at Westholm under the tutelage of Tuudur Vettik.  As a student he sang in the school choir and played cello with the Gymnasium orchestra and the Tallinn combined high schools symphony orchestra, which was cut short by the onset of war.  In the confusion of war, the young man landed in Germany where he started his musical theory studies at the Erlangen University.  Arriving in America as a war refugee, even those studies ended.

Music has always been Jaak's first love.  However, living in America required some practical thinking and preparing for a profession with which to provide a living.  Thus Jaak became a successful architect.  Working at several highly-regarded architectural firms, he completed numerous hospitals and medical buildings throughout his career.

In 1949, Jaak Kukk became conductor of the San Francisco Estonian Choir.  He led the choir for five years.  In 1957 he moved to Los Angeles and lent his musical gifts to conducting the Los Angeles Estonian Mixed Choir in joint partnership with Rein Neggo.  After a couple of years, the choir sang solely under his baton.  Over the years, there have been good and bad times for the choir.  During the choir's heyday, as many as 60 singers raised their voices as one.  At the 25th anniversary, the choir even recorded an album.  In 2003, after 46 years as choir director, Jaak handed the conductor's baton over to current director, Kaie Pallo.  Jaak considers the choir's high points to be the West Coast Estonian Days Festivals where the choir participated throughout the years as well as the traditional Spring Concerts of the choir.  Over the years, the choir has had a choral friendship with the German women's choir, "Frohsinn".

Though there have been numerous choir works for which Jaak has an affinity, his favorite is still his first music professor, Tuudur Vettik's "Nocturne", which he was fortunate enough to direct at the 1999 Los Angeles West Coast Estonian Days.

Kaie Pallo hails from V�ru, Estonia.  She grew up in a music loving family where every family event included songs and music.  Her musical interests germinated from her mother's side grandparents who sang and played a variety of instruments.  Her grandfather's piano playing inspired young Kaie so much that she would right then and there sit at the piano and try to play the same tunes.  Her grandmother's wish was that Kaie begin studying the piano.  And so it was that Kaie soon found herself with her mother taking a music school entrance examination.  Her musical path began at the V�ru Children's Music School, from which she graduated and then continued her studies at the Viljandi Cultural School, which is today known as Viljandi Cultural College, where she became a conducting major.  She continued her conducting studies at the Tallinn Consistorium's music division, where, however, her major was the organ.

Having a connection between the conductor and the choir is what binds Kaie to her task.  Her greatest joy comes from moments when the choir achieves that which she hopes her conducting will bring forth.  She loves to conduct lively and joyful songs.  Her favorites include compositions by K.A. Hermann, M. H�rma, A. Kunileid and S�belman.  Kaie believes and hopes that choir music will live in the hearts of Estonians for a long, long time.

History of the Los Angeles Estonian Mixed Choir

The Los Angeles Estonian Mixed Choir was founded in October of 1949
.  Rein Neggo, recently arrived from Germany, was elected as its first choir director.  The choir began activities as one of the Estonian Association's sub-organizations.  The first concert was given in 1951 at the Odd Fellows Hall.  Please, read more from the blog! Scroll down for English.

BALTI TALENDID MAAILMA MEELELAHUTUSES / Talented Balts In The World Of The Arts

"Baltlased, tere tulemast Hollywood'i!" Selliste s�nadega juhatas endine inglite linna kuulus eesti soost uudisteankur Tiiu Leek sisse �rituse, mis kandis nime "Balts in Hollywood".

LEERIP�EV / Confirmation Day

Kevad on looduse noorusaeg, mil k�ik me �mber �itseb, l�hnab ja s�rab. Kevadine Nelip�ha Los Angelese koguduse seas oli t�is noorust ja s�ra. T�iskasvanuikka olid j�udnud kuus Los Angelese noort, kes meie k�igi silme all �les on kasvanud. Nende elu kevadhetke oli tulnud tunnistama terve kirikut�is rahvast nii l�hedalt kui kaugelt. 

Leerikooli �pilased Maarja Pallo, Mari-Liis Pallo, Karl-Eerik Leesment, Martin Pallo, Taavi Kaskla ja Mikk Otsmaa olid l�bi teinud aastapikkuse leerikooli ning olid valmis Nelip�ha jumalateenistusel kirikuliste ees oma usutunnistust andma. Jumalateenistust juhatasid pastor J�ri Pallo ning praost Thomas Vaga. Esines Los Angelese segakoor dirigent Kaie Pallo juhendamisel. Kevad ja noorus on muretu aeg. R��mu ja muretust oli tunda ka jumalateenistusel. Kokku oli tuldud ju r��msat s�ndmust t�histama. Kirik oli rahvast puup�sti tais. Perekonnas�brad, s�brad, ristivanemad, lapsevanemad ja �petajad - k�ik kes nende noorte hingede elus oma rolli olid m�nginud. Kimpudest kirikuliste k�es said lilles�lemid leerilaste s�les. Kui k�ik need lilled �mber arvestada soovivalemiks, siis saaks sellest valem t�is armastust, lootust ja s�damlikke soove. 

Los Angelese eestlased soovivad oma leerilastele edu ja kordaminekuid uuel eluetapil ning loodavad, et ka meie �hine kodu Los Angeleses nende noorest ja pakatavast energiast puudutatud saaks.

Spring is nature's time of rebirth where everything around is in bloom, fragrant and shining.  Our Los Angeles congregation's Pentecost Sunday service shone with a celebration of youth.  Six of our Los Angeles young, who grew up under our very eyes, achieved adult status.  Guests from far and near participated in this special service of confirmation into the church body.  

Confirmees Maarja Pallo, Mari-Liis Pallo, Martin Pallo, Karl-Erik Leesment, Taavi Kaskla and Mikk Otsmaa had completed their year-long studies and were ready this Pentecost Sunday to affirm their faith in the presence of the congregation.  The services were led by Pastor J�ri Pallo and  Praost Thomas Vaga.  The Los Angeles Choir sang under the direction of Kaie Pallo.  Youth and springtime are carefree times.  These carefree feelings were most certainly felt during the service.  After all, the congregation had gathered to mark a joyous event.  The church was filled to the rafters with family friends, friends, godparents, parents and teachers - all who had played a part in their lives.  From the bundles of flowers brought by the congregants evolved arm fulls of flowers for each of the confirmees.  If all those flowers were to be converted into a formula of wishes, the result would be a formula full of love, hope and heartfelt wishes.

LA's Estonians wish our confirmees success as life leads them in new paths and hope that our communal Los Angeles home will be touched by their youthful bursting energies.

P�HJA-AMEERIKA AUKONSULITE KOHTUMINE WASHINGTON D.C. EESTI SAATKONNAS
Conference of North America based Estonian honorary consuls at the Estonian Embassy in Washington, D.C. 

K�esoleva aasta 7. mail osalesin Washington D.C. Eesti saatkonnas toimunud P�hja-Ameerika aukonsulite kohtumisel. See oli esimene omataoline kokkusaamine peale 1989 juulis eesti diplomaadi Ernst Jaaksoni poolt algatatud kohtumist New York'i Rockefeller Center'is, kus peale minu osalesid veel konsul Aarand Roos ja Eesti aukonsul Ilmar Heinsoo Kanadast.

7. mai kohtumisel osalesid �heksa aukonsulit ja aukonsuli kandidaati Kanadast ja Ameerika �hendriikidest. Samuti osales Tiina Intelmann, kes on eesti saadik �hinenud Rahvaste Organisatsiooni juures, Justiitsminister Rein Lang, Eesti V�lisministeeriumi asekantsler Marina Kaljurand, V�lisminister Urmas Paet, Eesti Saatkonna Majandusdiplomaat Viljar Lubi, Eesti Saatkonna Pressi-ja kultuuridiplomaat Terje Raadik, Kanada Suursaatkonna Ajutine asjur Riho Kruuv, Peakonsul New York'i Peakonsulaadist Jaanus Kirikm�e, Eesti Suursaadik V�ino Reinart ja Andrus Viirg, kes on Eesti Ettev�tluse Arendamise Sihtasutuse esindaja Silicon Valley's.
Valitsuse ametnike presentatsioonidele j�rgnes k�simuste-vastuste voor ja arutelud. Eriliselt palju aega p�hendati Eesti - Ameerika kaubandussuhete arendamisele p�hendatud arutelule.
Aruluse all oli ka konsulaark�simustega seonduv, kaasaarvatud minu arvamuse j�rgi vastuk�ivus reisipasside ja ID kaartide jagamise n�udmistes: aukonsulitel on lubatud isiklikult kohale toimetada eesti vabariigi passe, kuid mitte ID kaarte.
Eesti V�lisministeerium m�istab Ameerika �hendriikide mastaape. Ministeerium otsib kandidaate, et Eesti aukonsulite rida Ameerika Uhendriikides taiendada. Kui vastav kandidaat on leitud, v�ib kandidaadi kinnitamiseks riigidepartemangu poolt kuluda kaks kuni kolm aastat. Viivitus on tingitud nii Eesti kui USA valitsuse turvan�uetest.
Konverents l�ppes piduliku vastuv�tuga Eesti suursaadik Reinart'i residentsis. Suursaadik abikaasaga v�ljendasid suurt huvi enne oma ametiaja l�ppu k�lastada ka Los Angelest.

Jaak Treiman
Eesti Vabariigi aukonsul Los Angeleses

On May 7, I attended an all-day conference of North American based Estonian honorary consuls at the Estonian Embassy in Washington, D.C.  This was the first such conference since July 1989 when Consul General in Charge of Legation Ernst Jaakson asked Estonian Honorary Consul General Ilmar Heinsoo from Canada and me to meet with him and Consul Aarand Roos at the offices of the Estonian Consulate General in Rockefeller Center, New York.
The May 7 conference was attended by nine honorary and candidate honorary consuls from Canada and the United States.  Also attending were Tiina Intelmann, Estonian Ambassador to the United Nations, Rein Lang, Minister of Justice, Marina Kaljurand, Undersecretary for Foreign Economic Policy and Development, Urmas Paet, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Viljar Lubi, the embassy's Counselor for Economic Affairs, Terje Raadik, Public and Cultural Affairs Officer at the embassy, Riho Kruuv, Charg� d'Affaires at the Estonian Embassy in Canada, Jaanus Kirikm�e, Consul General in New York and Ambassador V�ino Reinart.  Andrus Viirg from the Silicon Valley office of Enterprise Estonia also participated in the conference.
The conference consisted of presentations by the Estonian government officials followed by questions, answers and discussions.  A substantial amount of time was spent discussing how to further trade relations between Estonia and the United States.  
Mundane consular issues were also discussed including what I consider the inanity of requiring personal delivery of issued passports and the incongruity of permitting honorary consuls to deliver passports but not personal identification cards.
The Estonian foreign ministry understands how large the United States is.  They are diligently seeking more qualified persons to serve as Estonia's honorary consuls in America.  Once a suitable candidate has been found it is taking between two and three years for the appointment to be formally approved by the U.S. State Department.  The delay is blamed on security issue requirements of both the Estonian and American governments.
The conference concluded with an evening reception for all attendees at the home of Ambassador Reinart.  He and his wife indicated a strong desire to visit Los Angeles sometime prior to the end of his tour of duty in Washington.
