SANSARA: Arvo Pärt at Passiontide
Thursday 10 April 2025
7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Global audiences have loved every note of Pärt’s profoundly communicative music; SANSARA choir’s Passiontide concert marks his 90th birthday year with a sequence of his best-loved masterpieces, including Fratres and the heart-rending Stabat Mater. They visit Tudor England too: ‘Not even the words of the prophet sound as sad as my composer,’ wrote a 16th-century fan of Robert White’s beautiful Lamentations.
