- Arvo Pärt is regarded as one of today’s most original creators of music. Many of his compositions are bound up with sacred texts and have a shimmeringly mystical, devotional quality, underscored by the use of Renaissance harmonizations, medieval melodic techniques, the music of the Eastern Orthodox Church and Gregorian chant. The film features a performance of Pärt’s luminously beautiful "Te Deum" given by the choir and the Tallinn Chamber Orchestra conducted by the charismatic conductor Tõnu Kaljuste. It was recorded at the Church of St. Nicholas in Tallinn.
From the documentary "Voices Still in Time - Images of Estonian Music: Arvo Pärt".

Beyond. It might be the most sublime piece of music ever written. And this performance was breathtaking. The soprano soloist. . . how can anyone sing so purely and lightly and sweetly? The ending brought me to tears after multiple, ecstatic goosebumps.
This piece for me is highest musical expression of a mystical experience and the meaning of the text. I discovered the piece through these performers' CD back in 1993, and its impact has never diminished.
Tonu Kaljuste is so completely inside this Praise... Poetry in magnificence in the highest order... Carthatic, electrifying, tonic, blessing, cosmic and near, unbound and ethereal....... A picture of limping humanity, by a mystifying grace, offering fruits to the King of Immensity and Compassion. God allows this, to stoop to His children and weep with them... until they laugh.
It indeed is quite perfect, there is really nothing say when something is perfect.
I'm so glad this is back up on youtube. It got taken down some time ago but now it's back and I'm so happy. I think I've probably listened to this piece four dozen times and each time the solemnity and fragrance of its harmony never ceases to remind me of the Holy Spirit
Yes.
His music is always so beautifully ethereal!
I hope everyone has heard of the recently reported research on the inborn musical aptitude of infants. At two days, infants react if there's a missing downbeat. And, as soon as they can control their muscles, they move in time to music.
Music is truly our native language. Its universality is one of many reasons it was so important to the real Shakespeare, who was said to have a professional level of proficiency in music. And he used musical tropes more than any contemporary playwrights, with word play on both the literal meaning; as well as the technical musical meaning.
Grandiose et Magnifique
One of my favorite Arvo Part pieces.
Amazing in the highest
Шедевр! Величественно, проникновенно, глубоко! Исполнение на высочайшем художественном и профессиональном уровне! Нет выше музыки, чем музыка прославляющая Господа нашего Иисуса Христа! Пярт, Васкс, Губайдулина, Шнитке - гениальные композиторы, проповедники слова Божьего через музыку!
Breathtakingly lovely.
Thanks very much for this! Great presentation.
If I may suggest, add a minute of the applause at the end. I always like hearing the acknowledgement of the audience.
The Master Chorale of San Luis Obispo, CA will be performing the piece this week. After listening to this, I am so looking forward to having a moving experience.
Looking forward to performing this tomorrow with the SLO Master Chorale!
Ομορφιά, βάθος, ιερότητα, Μαγεία.
I've become god, the creator for worlds...
