In pricipio is a newer release that I really like it has the song mein weig which is one of my all time favorites. I also love frates from tabula rasa as well as speigel I'm speigel. There are a lot of modern classical composers I like though they might not all be similar to arvo part they hit hard for me the same way he does. Scelsi, Nono, Xenakis, Penderecki are all favs and my above all fav is Gyorgi Ligeti.
Arvo Part... Where have you been my whole life?
My interest in classical music didn't really develop until about five years ago, so I'm still a novice compared to many of the folks here on A'gon. I tend to listen to a lot of small scale chamber music and choral music.
I've had Part's Tabula Rasa for years and always liked it, but for some reason I never delved further. I guess it's because I tend to avoid modern classical. In any case, I just started listening to some of his other works -- Te Deum, De Profundis, Alina, Litany. They are beautiful.
Can anyone recommend other works, either by Part or by similar composers? Thanks.
