The Gesualdo Six
Pärt Passio
With the singers from St Salvator’s Chapel Choir and University of St Andrews' Musicians
Arvo Pärt once asked a street cleaner what a contemporary composer should do. The answer? “He should love every note.”
The Gesualdo Six join forces with singers and musicians from the University of St Andrews in a concert celebrating the music of the great Estonian composer, now in his 91st year. Pärt's Passio, composed in 1982, sets words from the Gospel of St John for choir, semi-chorus and chamber ensemble in his iconic Tintinnabuli style.
