Arvo Pärt and French
Ligita Sneibe (organ)
Programme: A. Pärt, E. Gigout, J. Alain, O. Messiaen, T. Dubois, J. Demessieux
This concert programme alternates between Arvo Pärt’s stripped-down, meditative sound world and the colourful, often virtuosic expression of French organ music. Pärt’s music moves in quiet circles, where every tone carries inner significance, while the French tradition offers rich harmonies, dramatic gestures, and technical brilliance. Together, these contrasts form a musical journey between contemplation and exultation.
