This disc could just as well be entitled 'The Essential Pärt', so far as the non-choral works are concerned anyway. There are now many alternative versions of most of these pieces, including the symphony on DG or Naxos and who knows how many different versions of the various permutations of Fratres. However, the disc in question has rather more claims on your attention than most, its authenticity being the most obvious. |
