Sügise rütmis kulgedes avastab Kaisa Kasekamp Austria pealinna läbi eestlaste lugude: Hille, kes kolis Viini juba 1987. aastal, ja magistritudeng, kes just asus sinna elama. Kaisa jagab seekord mõtisklust sellest, kuidas kodutunne võib tekkida ka Viini tänavatel.

Blanketed by the first snow outside, the 103rd The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair at Exhibition Place has been full of warmth, competition, and community. Visitors enjoyed the aromas of fresh baked goods, watched thrilling equestrian competition, and celebrated rural traditions with prize-winning cattle, giant pumpkins, and unbelievably detailed butter sculptures.

Eesti keel on eestlaste meelest teadagi kõige ilusam keel maailmas, aga seda peetakse ka üheks raskemini õpitavaks keeleks. See ei takistanud Ameerikast Minnesotast pärit tõlkijal, kirjanikul ja muusikul Adam Cullenil, kelle soontes ei voola tilkagi eesti verd, seda keelt laitmatult ära õppimast ja eesti kultuuriruumi sulandumast. Kuulake ja saate teada, millega meie maa ja keel Adami ära võlusid, kes on tema lemmikkirjanikud Eestis ja mujal, miks ta elab Haapsalus ja veel palju muud.

Tänases saates kuulete:
✍🏻 kuidas Adam sattus Eestisse, kus ta on tänaseks peaaegu 20 aasta elanud
✍🏻 mis nippe ta kasutas eesti keele selgeks õppimiseks
✍🏻 kuidas sai Adamist üks tunnustatumaid eesti kirjanduse tõlkijaid ja miks see töö talle meeldib
✍🏻 miks ta luuletab eesti keeles
✍🏻 mis muljed jäid Adamil Toronto eesti kogukonnast, mida ta tänavu septembris külastas

🎧 Saate leiate kõikidelt suurematelt taskuhäälingu platvormidelt juba täna või klikkides siia: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1973176/episodes/18131686 🎧

Head kuulamist!

A weekend of Debussy, Kõrvits, Vasks, and Sibelius under Paavo Järvi whispered and roared up to the ceiling at Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto. It was a concert that proved how trust between conductor and an orchestra's musicians can really ignite something powerful on stage.
