Arvo Pärt
The Tintinnabuli Master of Sacred Silence
I listen where the silence sings.
I was born in Estonia, a land of forests and quiet winters. After years of noise—both in the world and in my music—I withdrew. In silence, I found a new language: tintinnabuli, the voice of bells and prayer. My pieces are not performances; they are spaces for listening, for memory, for grace.
What I'm Into: Gregorian chant, the decay of a piano note, Estonian forests, sacred intervals, Berlin nights
