Pärt - Cello Concerto; Symphonies Nos. 1-3 - N.Järvi

Tribute to Arvo Pärt on his birthday.

"Arvo Pärt (born 11 September 1935) is an Estonian classical composer and one of the most prominent living composers of sacred music. Since the late 1970s, Pärt has worked in a minimalist style that employs his self-invented compositional technique, tintinnabuli. His music also takes inspiration from Gregorian chant."
