ARVO PART "Passio" [12" 2-LP, Black Vinyl, Gatefold]
2014 - Classical from Estonia
Detailed Description
We here present the work of Anthony Pitts and Tonus Peregrinus, being Part's passion cantata from 1982, winner of the Cannes Classical Award. Comprised mostly of hypnotic tintinnabuli, which has become a signature of Part's oeuvre , the work is a slow moving liturgical piece offering a vastness, solemnity and effective intimacy which allows the listener to contemplate the mysteries and suffering of the canonical text taken from the Gospel of John, chapters 18 and 19.
