Statistically the most performed and listened to contemporary
composer in the world, Arvo Part is a musical and cultural
phenomenon. This book is an essential resource for anyone
interested in his extraordinarily innovative and uniquely appealing
music. Andrew Shenton surveys the full scope of Part's oeuvre,
providing context and chronological continuity while concentrating
in particular on his text-based music, analysing and describing
individual pieces and techniques such as tintinnabulation. The book
also explores the spiritual and theological contexts of Part's
creativity, and the challenges of performing his work. This volume
is the definitive guide for readers looking to engage with the
form, content, and context of Part's compositions, as Shenton
situates Part in the narrative of metamodernism and suggests new
ways of understanding this unique and beautiful music.
