The Tallis Scholars Pärt en Palestrina

The Tallis Scholars and conductor Peter Phillips present a program in which Renaissance and contemporary stillness meet. Music by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina is placed alongside works by Arvo Pärt, allowing two spiritual sound worlds to enter into a dialogue. Palestrina's clear polyphony and Pärt's austere, meditative style share a similar attention to balance, space, and concentration. In this combination, a timeless listening experience emerges in which old and new sacred music reinforce each other.
