ARVO PÄRT: Te Deum for three choirs, prepared piano, string orchestra and tape

Arvo Pärt (b. 1935) is one of the most performed contemporary composers in the world. This year he turns 85 years.

Te Deum from 1985 is a big and impressive ½ hour piece for three choirs, prepared piano, string orchestra and tape – not performed often in Finland so do come and experience it live!

"Te Deum was a quest for something evanescent, something long lost or not yet found, a quest for something believed to be non-existent, but so real that it exists not only within us but beyond our being as well."
