Public Art
Tintinnebula is inspired by the music of Arvo Pärt who went to school in Rakvere. The name refers to way of composing Arvo Pärt invented (Tintinnabuli), but also to a nebula - a collection of stars. The cymbals are full of potential energy, but mostly silent waiting for the right moment. The sound of cymbals is heard when the wind grows stronger and the rain drops start making the sound of tinn-tinn. It welcomes the visitor to take a break and enjoy the silence.
