Sein Post Moderner Stil bedient sich gleichermaßen althergebrachter und neuer Methoden und brachte ihm den Ruf eines Visionärs ein. Tabula Rasa ist eine seiner am weitesten verbreiteten Kompositionen und eine gutes Beispiel für seinen ausgereiften Stil. Andächtig, zeitlos und düster zugleich, mit Harmonien, die aus einer anderen Welt zu kommen scheinen, zeigt sich hier warum Pärt sich als Ausnahme Komponist des späten 20.Jahrhunderts etabliert hat. ARVO PÄRT: TABULA RASA: Concerto for 2 violins,prepared piano and string orchestra (1977) SYMPHONY No. 1 "Poliphonic" (1964) COLLAGE ON A THEME B-A-C-H (1964) PRO ET CONTRA: Concerto for cello and orchestra. (1966) (1) Crtomir Siskovic and Victor Kuleshov - Violinen Petr Laul - Piano (4) Vadim Messermann - Cello Congress Orchestra Conductors: Paolo Gatto (1), Vladimir Norets (2 - 4) Sound engineer: Gerhard Tses Petersburg Recording Studio, November 1995 The Berlin based Estonian Arvo Pärt is one of the most important composers of the post-war era. His postmodern style is equally inspired by traditional as by new methods and has earned him the reputation of being a visionary. Tabula Rasa stands as one of his most widely-performed compositions, as well as a fine example of his mature style. At once reverent, bleak and timeless, rich with otherwordly harmonies, it shows why Pärt has established himself as an exceptional composer of the late 20th century.
