Synopsis

Product Description
Dynamic conductor Kristjan Järvi celebrates the 75th birthday of iconic composer Arvo Pärt with Cantique. Järvi leads the Rundfunk Sinfonie-Orchester Berlin and the RIAS Kammerchor in performance of Pärt s 1971 masterpiece, Symphony No. 3, plus the world premiere recordings of the orchestral and choral version of his Stabat mater and Cantique des degrès for choir and orchestra.

Cantique represents the culmination of a lifelong friendship between Kristjan Järvi and Arvo Pärt, whose families have been friends since the 1960s. Symphony No. 3 is a major symphonic masterpiece of the late 20th century and is dedicated to Kristjan s father, Neeme Järvi. In 2008, when Kristjan Järvi was the music director of the Tonkünstler-Orchester Niederösterreich in Vienna, he commissioned an orchestral and choral version of Pärt s Stabat mater which he premiered with Pärt in attendance.
