Paul Hillier

Paul Hillier curates this collection of Arvo Pärt's instrumental and choral chamber music drawn from different periods in the composer's career. He brings together his celebrated vocal ensembles, along with chamber group NYYD, and long-time collaborator organist Christopher Bowers-Broadbent, to produce another powerful recording of ethereal sacred music.

  • "The impact is as satisfying as it is profound"

    It’s this inexorable journey to stillness, and the stunning economy by which it gets there which makes Pärt’s music compelling, timeless and moving.

  • "Virtuosic singers"

    It is no surprise that the virtuosic singers in Theatre of Voices and Ars Nova Copenhagen are often to be found in early music ensembles.

  • "Fully at ease..."

    The patient, softly-contoured gentleness they bring to the start of The Deer’s Cry is mesmerising and makes the stresses of its later insistence – climax seems too strong a word – all the more effective.

  • "A gorgeous disc"

    The sound of the uppermost voice in Hillier’s choirs—soprano Else Trop—is somewhere between celestial and astounding.

  • ...der glänzenden Ars Nova Copenhagen...

    Es ist ein Glücksfall gerade für Pärts Musik, dass fast alle Interpreten hier sowohl Spezialisten für Alte als auch Neue Musik sind.

    The vocalists and instrumentalists sound heavenly. Paul Hillier works his magic. It is most definitely worth seeking out.

  • "Bone-chilling"

    is perhaps the warmth and beauty of the voices of Ars Nova Copenhagen that is most immediately striking.
