About
On Spiegel im Spiegel, Amsterdam Sinfonietta, the Netherlands Chamber Choir, Candida Thompson, Martina Batič, Hülya Keser and Tim Posner perform a program of Baltic and English compositions, wherein space and time blur. The title of this album is from Arvo Pärt’s meditative work of the same name, Spiegel im Spiegel, which is performed in two separate versions bookending the album, embracing the concept of the mirror. Ralph Vaughan Williams’ Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis mirrors the Renaissance in the 20th century. Works by Estonian composers Veljo Tormis and Lepo Sumera have yet another spiritual essence, as shamanistic primal cries resound in Tormis’ epic choir work Curse upon Iron. Latvian composer Pēteris Vasks’ Plainscapes evokes the vast expanses of the Baltic plains.
