(2CD) MUSICA SELECTA

Παρουσίαση

Composer Arvo Part and producer Manfred Eicher have maintained their creative partnership for more than thirty years. Eicher launched ECM New Series in 1984 as a platform for Part's music, bringing the Estonian composer to the world's attention with Tabula Rasa. Since that epochal release, all first recordings of Part's major works have been made for ECM, with the composer's committed participation. In this special double album, issued on Part's birthday, Eicher revisits episodes from their shared musical quest, evoking fresh associations from juxtapositions of pieces in his dramaturgical sequence, as we are invited to hear the music anew.
