Listener Reviews & Comments
Arvo Part's music is a spiritual experience. The beauty of it is indescribable...he brings a glimpse of the source of all things to this earth in a language we can all understand...this glorious sound. "Miserere", a prayer of repentance, is magnificent. It's a soul stirring blend of voices, sometimes soaring, sometimes pianissimo, with the accompaniment of wind, brass, guitar, organ and percussion. This CD also includes a short piece for strings, "Festina Lente", which is wonderful, and "Sarah Was Ninety Years Old" for three voices, organ and timpani. It's an exquisite piece that was written about twelve years before the other two, and is somewhat lighter in feeling, reminding one a little of a Gregorian Chant in its purity of sound. There are some lovely photos of Part during a recording session in the booklet. He looks like a prophet of old in a suit and tie, with extraordinary, expressive hands.
