  • The Choral Compositions of Arvo Pärt As an Example of “God-Seeking” Through Music in Soviet Russia

PÄRT All rights reserved. 85 THE CHORAL COMPOSITIONS OF ARVO PÄRT AS AN EXAMPLE OF “GOD-SEEKING” THROUGH MUSIC IN SOVIET RUSSIA TATIANA SOLOVIOVA* 1. EMERGING FROM THE UNDERGROUND OF ‘OFFICIAL ATHEISM’ OF THE SOVIET ERA Arvo Pärt was a representative of the underground music in the former Soviet Union. His music, like the works of many other musicians and art- ists, did not fit within the narrow bosom of Socialist Realism – the prevail- ing ideology of the time.1 He had to struggle in order to write the music he wanted. Nowadays there is no Soviet Empire anymore, and the composi- tions of Pärt represent “the face” of contemporary music. He is one of the few composers whose art music enjoys success similar to that of pop. He is widely known, and his works are being performed all over the world. Arvo Pärt was born in 1935 in Paide, near Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, one of the Western republics within the former USSR. Between the First and the Second World War this little country enjoyed a short period of in- dependence. Life for Pärt till 1980 was inseparably connected with his Motherland Estonia on one hand, and with Russia, which was the political and cultural dominant at that time, on the other hand. Pärt knew and loved national traditions, as well as he knew European and Russian culture: he called the composer Glazunov who taught his teacher Heino Eller ‘my musi- * Tatiana Soloviova studied at Moscow State University and obtained her PhD in His- tory.

  • Choral Vespers
    GONVILLE & CAIUS COLLEGE CHAPEL Easter Term 2021 CHORAL VESPERS Vespers is the sixth of the seven prayer services of the Christian day. Its name comes from the Latin vespera, which means ‘evening.’ When Thomas Cranmer created the English Prayer Book in 1549 and 1552 he combined Vespers with the night service (compline) into the service we know as Evensong. Magnificat is the Gospel Canticle of Vespers, as Nunc Dimittis is the Gospel Canticle of Compline. The service ends with a traditional antiphon (a special seasonal text, from which comes our modern word ‘anthem’) in honour of the Blessed Virgin Mary. 2nd May Fourth Sunday of Easter LUCERNARIUM (The Lighting of the Lamps) Thy word is a lantern unto my feet and a light unto my paths. Thou also shalt light my candle the Lord my God shall make my darkness to be light. The light and peace of Jesus Christ be with you and with thy spirit Light Prayer Blessed art thou, Sovereign Lord, God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to thee be glory and praise for ever. Thou hast called us out of darkness into thy marvellous light that our lives may reflect thy glory and our lips repeat thy song: Blessed be God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit HYMN LUCIS Creator optime O BLEST Creator of the light, lucem dierum proferens, Who mak'st the day with radiance bright, primordiis lucis novae, and o'er the forming world didst call mundi parans originem: the light from chaos first of all; Qui mane iunctum vesperi Whose wisdom joined in meet array diem vocari praecipis: the morn and eve, and named them Day: taetrum chaos illabitur, night comes with all its darkling fears; audi preces cum fletibus.

He first gained recognition in Soviet Russia in 1959 with his prize-winning tonal cantata for children - Meie Aed (Our Garden). In the following year, he started experimenting with aspects of serialism and, later, with combining several styles in one piece. Although the Soviet authorities criticized his experimental music, he continued to compose serial works until 1968. After that he stopped composing for almost eight years. During this self-imposed compositional silence, he immersed himself in the intensive study of medieval and Renaissance music, for example, Gregorian chant, the music of Machaut, Ockeghem and Josquin. He eventually developed a distinctive compositional style, which he calls the "tintinnabuli style." Fur Alina (1976), a short piano solo, was his first tintinnabuli work.

  • Arvo Pärt Triodion Polyphony · Stephen Layton
    ARVO PÄRT TRIODION POLYPHONY · STEPHEN LAYTON TRIODION ARVO PÄRT POLYPHONYPOLYPHONY STEPHENSTEPHEN LAYTONLAYTON 30 OLYPHONY’s first Hyperion recording of Arvo Pärt’s choral music (CDA66960) focused on music written Pbetween 1988 and 1991, a particularly fertile period for the composer which coincided with a surge of international performances and recordings, and resulting acclaim. Works on that disc, and others such as the large-scale setting of Psalm 51, Miserere, suggested that Pärt was moving into more complex, exotic harmonic territory. With clusters, compound chords and use of the augmented second interval, he seemed to be stretching the crucial, characteristic boundary in his music between dissonance and consonance. Judging by the more recent music on this disc—all written between 1996 and 2002—that harmonic journey was, for Pärt, something from which he has now returned. The essential purity of the triad remains paramount, and chord progressions in works such as Triodion and Salve Regina seem more diatonically conventional. And although there is less evidence in these pieces of strict ARVO PÄRT © Tina Foster ‘tintinnabulation’—the rigidly maintained discourse during the recording sessions at Temple Church, London between stepwise and triadic part-writing—there is enough austerity of structure and harmony in other ways extended periods at his second home near Colchester in to make it unmistakably ‘Pärtian’.

But this, he insists, is not the reason for a greater setting in English (a section from Saint Matthew’s account number of English settings.

The same is true of the contemporary Estonian composer Arvo Pärt (b. 1935), though his earlier compositional style has been almost entirely overshadowed by the tremendous popularity of his second period. Pärt began his career writing works that adopted neo-classicism, serialism and polystylism, but between 1968 and 1976 suffered a kind of writer’s block.

  • Chapter Three Minimal Music
    72 Chapter Three Minimal music This chapter begins with a brief outline of minimal music in the United States, Europe and Australia. Focusing on composers and stylistic characteristics of their music, plus aspects of minimal music pertinent to this study, it helps the reader situate the compositions, composers and events referred to throughout the thesis. The chapter then outlines reasons for engaging students aged 9 to 18 years in composing activities drawn from projects with minimalist characteristics, reasons often related to compositional or historical aspects of minimal music since the late 1960s. A number of these reasons are educational, concerned with minimalism as an accessible teaching resource that draws on students’ current musical knowledge and offers a bridge from which to explore musics of other cultures and other contemporary art musics. Other reasons are concerned with the performance capabilities of students, with the opportunity to introduce students to a contemporary aesthetic, to different structural possibilities and collaboration and subject integration opportunities. There is also an educational need for a study investigating student composing activities to focus on these activities in relation to contemporary art music. There are social reasons for engaging students in minimalist projects concerned with introducing students to contemporary arts practice through ‘the new tonality’, involving students with a contemporary music which is often controversial, and engaging students with minimalism at a time of particular activity and expansion in the United States and in Australia. 3.1 Minimalism Minimalism is an aesthetic found across a number of different art forms – architecture, dance, visual art, theatre, design and music - and at the beginning of the twenty-first century, it is still strongly influential on many contemporary artists.
