Description: Part / Cappella Romana - Odes of Repentance [New CD] Artist: Part / Cappella Romana Title: Odes of Repentance Condition: Format: CD Release Date: 2023 Label: Cappella Records UPC: 753459506271 Genre: Classical Artists The Eastern Orthodox understanding of repentance doesn't dwell on morose sorrow for past transgressions. Instead it focuses on deliverance and optimism: repentance, from the Greek metánoia, is a change of mind, a fundamentally positive redirection. This recording presents Arvo Pärt's Orthodox choral works for the first time as a service (or office) of supplication (Greek paráklesis, Slavonic molében). The office is built around the singing of a Byzantine poem called a kanon, on this occasion three odes from Pärt's monumental Kanon Pokajanen (Kanon of Repentance). Compositions by Pärt likewis e comprise the other elements of this office: a Gospel reading marks the center of the service (The Woman with the Alabaster Box) completed by psalmody, Orthodox hymns, and fervent prayers. Pärt's transcendent "Prayer after the Kanon" eventually gives way to silence, to the prayer of the heart. Cappella Romana transforms hearts and minds through encounters with the sacred musical inheritance of the Christian East and West, bringing to life these ancient and diverse traditions, especially of Byzantium, and their interactions with other cultures. Cappella Romana is devoted to the stewardship of this precious jewel of world culture. Arvo Pärt: Odes of Repentance is Cappella Romana's 31st release© DirectToU LLC. All Rights Reserved.
