New release from classic composer Arvo Part
A tip from our friends at Soli Deo Gloria:
“Arvo Pärt has opened a window into a world of spiritual ideals,” writes NPR Terrance McKnight in an announcement of Pärt’s newest CD, Cantique, to be released this month to coincide with the composer’s 75th birthday. You can preview Cantique on NPR, which is streaming the disc for free, in its entirety, till it releases on September 21, 2010.SDG is joining the birthday celebration by co-sponsoring the Vale of Glamorgan Festival in Wales, which is offering the most extensive celebration of Pärt in the UK.
‘Cantique’ is challenging but merits careful and sustained listening to fully appreciate.
SDG’s FaceBook page provides updates from their festival, including Arvo Part highlights as the Festival opens Sunday.
