Synopsis

Album Description
Following a highly successful venture in Philip Glass' soundscape, Angèle Dubeau now goes on the trail of Estonian composer Arvo Pärt. Frequently referred to as meditative, Pärt prefers to describe his music as a light going through a prism, every listener perceiving it in a different way. Angèle Dubeau is revisiting Tabula rasa, Spiegel im Spiegel and Pilgrim's Song. An essential album for this era when nothing seems to be stoppable.

"If you have ever sought classical music as a way to relax, Mozart is not the only source. A relatively unknown contemporary classical composer, Arvo Part, has written beautiful and relaxing music. But make no mistake -- he is a 20th century composer, not of the Haydn/Mozart era. The last piece on this CD is called Spiegel im Spiegel (Mirror on Mirror) and it alone is worth the purchase of the CD. The violin ensemble of Angele Dubeau (Canadian)interprets the music with depth. This was a wonderful discovery..."
