About
Arvo Pärt is one of the greatest and most performed of living composers. Slow and meditative, often religious, reflecting his mystical experiences, Pärt’s works are unmistakeable. Here Morphing Chamber Orchestra, under its artistic director Tomasz Wabnic, performs some of the Estonian composer’s finest instrumental works, Fratres, Spiegel im Spiegel and Summa, together with one of his vocal masterpieces, the Stabat Mater, presented here in a new arrangement, sung by three of today’s greatest operatic voices, Roberto Alagna, Aleksandra Kurzak and Andreas Scholl. Several shorter pieces, marvels of poetry and purity, sung by Andreas Scholl, complete this programme.

Christmas Issue 2022
Whether in the simple lyricism of Vater Unser or the more angular Es sang vor langen Jahren, Scholl commands attention. Most remarkable are the quirky plodding of My Heart ’s in the Highlands and disquieting, drooping harmonies of Ein Wallfahrtslied where Scholl is utterly mesmerising while singing just a single pitch.
December 2022
if you are curious to hear what a countertenor of Scholl’s calibre makes of the solo vocal works, then it is certainly worth hearing.
