Prism: Pärt & MacMillan
"I could compare my music to white light which contains all colors. Only a prism can divide the colors and make them appear; this prism could be the spirit of the listener." -Arvo Pärt
We celebrate Arvo Pärt's 80th birthday with a concert of his mystical, minimal music paired with pieces by Scotsman James MacMillan whose hauntingly beautiful works have been described as "both timeless and contemporary." The striking yet spare sounds of other contemporary composers, including a world premiere by John Muehleisen, round out a wonderful program.
Arvo Pärt - Bogoroditse Devo, Magnificat, Nunc dimittis, Summa
James MacMillan - Strathclyde Motets, Christus Vincit, Child's Prayer, Here in hiding
Also featuring music by Brian Galante and the world premiere of a new commission by John Muehleisen.
