Happy Present Meet
Part Spiegel im Spiegel for Alto Flute and Piano
Composed 1978.
Duration 10 minutes
Arvo Parts "Spiegel im Spiegel" illustrates his creative principles: above a permanent flow of chords on the piano, the cello unfolds acantilena in long note values, which grows out of succinct steps. This cantilena spins out sweeping, chorale-like arches and spreads itself out more and more. It thus gives rise to a new architectonic configuration which, like a mediation chapel, stimulaties reflection, prayer or the desire for redemption. Jurgen Kochel
