Interview with Pēteris Vasks

Pēteris Vasks Strings is available on SINE now. www.orchestraltools.com/store...
We were lucky enough to sit down with Pēteris Vasks during the recording process of our brand-new library, and talk to him about his creative ethos, musical inspirations, and the influence of nature on his work.
Our new collection is inspired and guided by Pēteris Vasks’ Voices, a fully-detailed chamber string ensemble complete with violins, violas, celli, and basses: Small sections and first chair soloists.
Working directly with Vasks, we recorded small sections and first chair soloists from Sinfonietta Riga at St John’s church in Riga, Latvia.
And the results are breathtaking: A fully-detailed chamber ensemble with a unique character and color. Like the music that inspired them, these strings organically fuse dissonance and beauty to inspire you and your compositions.
Pēteris Vasks Strings is available to download. And we’re running a special introductory price offer of €449 + VAT (regular €549).

I find it amazing that a composer as successful and famous as him (in the contemporary classical world) composes on a small electric piano.

[@Banquet...]

What a fascinating man. Thank you, OT, for introducing Pēteris and his wonderful music to me.

[@Orchestral-Tools]

Thanks for listening

[@hlim431]

The greatest living composer... is a deep & grateful human being, in love with his art --- human beings are so so fortunate to have him!

[@Orchestral-Tools]

Absolutely!

[@jaedth]

One of my favourite composers. I adore his music. Our local orchestra has played a number of his works over the years. Exhilarating to hear it live.

[@Orchestral-Tools]

Thank you :)

We probably need a walkthrough video at this great library.

Мне очень нравится Васкс! Его музыка проста, но заставляет к себе прислушиваться... Надеюсь, когда-нибудь у нас в России будет возможность исполнять его произведения...

[@scottglasgowmusic]

Thank you for doing this! Amazing composer I have followed for decades.

[@Orchestral-Tools]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@GuyVignati]

Fascinating indeed…
May I ask you which piece is playing in the end of the video? 😊

[@rushkionze3758]

A very inspiring video
