Heino Eller (7 marzo 1887 - 1970): Kellad (Campane) per pianoforte (1929). Aleksandra Juozapénaité-Eesmaa. A quanto si dice, il brano fu ispirato dal suono delle campane della Chiesa luterana di san Paolo (Pauluse kirik) in Tartu, un edificio in stile art nouveau progettato da Eliel Saarinen e inaugurato nel 1917.

The Washington DC Metro System designed by architect Harry Weese
“Harry Weese, a prolific Chicago architect who had studied at Cranbrook with Eliel Saarinen, had designed the first of the modern Columbus schools in 1957. Years later, he began work on the Washington, DC, Metro system, finally completed in 1976 — a network of stations deemed by critic Herbert Muschamp to be among the greatest public works of the twentieth century.”
From the book J. Irwin Miller, The Shaping of an American Icon
