Singing Revolution
Years: 1987 - 1990
The Singing Revolution is a commonly used name for events between 1987 and 1990 that lead to the restoration of the independence of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania.
The term is coined by an Estonian activist and artist, Heinz Valk, in an article published a week after the June 10-11 1988 spontaneous mass night-singing demonstrations at the Tallinn Song Festival Grounds.
