Composer:
Arvo Part

Artist(s):
Tonus Peregrinus

Conductor:
Antony Pitts

Background: Arvo Pärt based the St John Passion on his new-found tintinnabuli principle that 'the melody and the accompaniment is one'. Settings of the Passion are part of a very early tradition in the Church, and in Pärt’s setting it is the text itself which determines the musical structure and even the duration of the silences between the words.

Using the most concentrated of means, Pärt communicates the depth and power of the ancient Passion story in a new and compelling way.
