Super! I sung this piece once in a non-professional choir. And I sometimes wonder if one could sing it a bit more expressionistically, not so much with a focus on esthetic articulation and Belcanto-like. I mean, these disciples were apparently quite rough guys and the conversation that underlies this piece is apparently all but nice and gentle. I'd rather say, it has some tendency towards nihilism. One could get an idea of that indignation of the disciples.

The beauty with which Pärt combines Gregorian purity with gut-felt emotion is, for me, unparalleled. An exquisite performance.
