Spiritual choral music with ancient texts

Regret and consolation, remorse and forgiveness: in his popular Kanon Pokajanen, Arvo Pärt has them dart around each other for two hours like swallows in flight, before finally landing in the wonderful zero point of the here and now, the acceptance of what is. Conducted by Kaspars Putniņš, Collegium Vocale Gent have already shown that they are capable of little miracles. Their transparent voices seem almost made for Pärt. Allow their singing to carry your thoughts aloft.
