Passio is one of the great masterpieces of sacred music of our time. Setting the same text that Bach used for his St John Passion, Arvo Pärt’s music weaves a captivating spell, introspective and serene. Inspired by medieval music, Passio feels timeless and yet entirely new, inviting the listener into a spiritual space of stillness and contemplation. Escape the noise and bustle of the outside world and enter the quiet and profound world Pärt creates in this 75-minute spiritual meditation.

Program:

Passio Domini nostri Jesu Christi secundum Joannem (75 minutes) | ARVO PÄRT (1935-)
