The Very Best of Arvo Pärt
Description
His music seems both familiar and new. It captivates listeners from around the world. Arvo Pärt is undoubtedly the most famous of modern classical composers. Without bending to crossover trends, with authentic and consistent self-discipline, the Estonian-born artist, who now lives in Berlin, inspires an audience of all kinds. On September 11, 2010, Arvo Pärt celebrates his 75th birthday. EMI Classics congratulates you with a representative compilation of his most famous works. It is always fascinating to observe the different ways in which Pärt puts his audience into a kind of hypnosis, trance, or at least a spiritual atmosphere: in "Tabula rasa," for example, one believes they are witnessing the rotation of stellar systems occurring according to complicated patterns, choral works such as the "Magnificat," the "Summa," the "Solfeggio," or the "Missa syllabica" combine this power with the authentic impression of the human voice. In his chamber music (Fratres, Spiegel im Spiegel), the limitation of means opens up immense imaginary spaces. Some works are represented in several versions, typical of Pärt's work. The performers of the double CD are always exceptional guarantors of the best recordings - notably the Estonian National Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Paavo Järvi or the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir under the direction of Tonu Kaljuste.Buy The Very Best of Arvo Pärt at the best price
