Music of mindfulness. Hypnotising and transcendental - NOSPR
Music of mindfulness. Hypnotising and transcendental
Open sales on September 2.
Compositions by Arvo Pärt and i Giya Kancheli are permeated with deep reflection on the meaning of life, referencing universal aspects of the human experience. Their ubiquitous minimalism provides space for introspection and meditation. It enables the listener to reach such focus that has an element of metaphysics in it. In the context of the contemporary conflicts, unrest, and even fashionable trends of mindfulness, this music lets one focus on what is truly important and beautiful. It opens for the listeners doors to reflection on their own lives and on the surrounding world.
Arvo Pärt’s Fratres, one of his best known works, has already been arranged for various instrumental ensembles. The version for a string quartet is special: it reinforces the hypnotising and transcendental message of the piece, opening up new opportunities for interpretation. In the Georgian language, the title of Giya Kancheli’s work, Amao Omi, means “a war of nonsenses”. It reflects the composer’s involvement in spreading pacifism and a reflection on human brutality and the pointlessness of war.
Concert duration: approximately 60 minutes
