There are many, many versions, for many, many ensembles - all made by Part himself…but here, one is moved & carried away by the still coldness of a perfect string arrangement… Someone close to me heard this for the first time today - it’s sampled on Nick Cave’s album ‘Carnage’ - I directed my friend to ‘Fratres’, after a friendly argument…he is bowled over - ‘like someone cutting glass’ was all he could say…& actually, when I first heard this piece on the radio, I thought it was called ‘Fir trees’- the image of a frosted glade of trees - the still, cold silence - was almost overwhelming… ‘Fratres’ - I think it means ‘Brothers’, & Aarvo Part’s deep , even dangerous - devotion is in every phrase, AND every mesmerising silence!

Dans la version sur UA-cam interprétée par l’orchestre de chambre de Tallinn et dirigé par Arvo Part lui-même, il n’y a pas de piano mais une grande place pour le 1re violon

Incroyable ce compositeur !! il atteint le plus profond de chacun de nous !
💙💙
Mit dieser Aufnahme ist ein Gesamtkunstwerk gelungen!
Arvo Pärt, formidable créateur de mouvements, de sons et d'espoir pour le futur. Maitre incontesté de musique contemporaine. Chapeau bas Monsieur!
At this terrifyingly wobbly era in our collective human journey, Pärt's "Fratres" is a like a timeless salve, from a better kind of spirit. Thanks
Words fail; this music goes straight to the soul.
Vielen Dank fürs teilen - das weckt Erinnerungen. Perfekte Musik, gerne laut hören an einsamen Küsten im französischen Norden. Erdet ungemein.
On Earth, ONLY ONE Composer can STOP THE TIME - A. Part.
Il existe de nombreuses versions, mais celle-ci est particulièrement belle et équilibrée. 🌞
Tout à fait ...
Masterpiece.
I am immersed in this piece, it reaches my soul
This is how deep music can go. crossing all borders!
Großartige Musik, wunderbar gespielt,bin begeistert und bedanke mich 😮
What a beautiful composition!
sublime ! musique de l'âme
Two comments now: I feel stunned by listening to this work of art.
arvo part reste pour moi l'égal de bach .C'est un génie inégalé au 21 ème siècle
d'accord :)
❤❤❤ Genius…Merci…Arvo ! 🙏👏❤️🎼❤️💫💫💫💫
Goosebumps!
quelle belle musique avec des accords troublants tellement tristes mais sublimes
The Talent that God gave Arvo Pärt is mindblowing, praise be God for His endless wisdom.
Let me say that I fully agree with your words
...Stunning.
The Sound of Silence.
Apresentação fantástica! Trabalho Maravilhoso!! Bravíssimo!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Sublime.
Fratres, genauso 😮😊😄
A wonderful complement to Fantasia on a Theme of Thomas Tallis by Ralph Vaughan Williams
Belíssimo! Imprescindível!
Das ist ,was ich zu gern höre,gekonnt, wunderbar 😀💖
I like the melody, and how it is turned, over and over. The metaphysics in this maybe will be clear when you dont even listen to this music
Tolle Inszenierung.

Çoğunluğa hitap eden bir iş iyi değildir.
For something supreme like this music comments are arguably superfluous.
Now THAT is how to do a concert. Engaging atmosphere without marginalizing the orchestra.
Good
si c'est le compositeur qui l'a écrit alors je n'ai plus rien à dire .Réponse à mon commentaire
belle version mais il manque le piano indispensable p our cette oeuvre sinon on trahit l'auteur
Arvo Part a écris lui même tout les arrangements possibles.
There are many, many versions, for many, many ensembles - all made by Part himself…but here, one is moved & carried away by the still coldness of a perfect string arrangement…
Someone close to me heard this for the first time today - it’s sampled on Nick Cave’s album ‘Carnage’ - I directed my friend to ‘Fratres’, after a friendly argument…he is bowled over - ‘like someone cutting glass’ was all he could say…& actually, when I first heard this piece on the radio, I thought it was called ‘Fir trees’- the image of a frosted glade of trees - the still, cold silence - was almost overwhelming…
‘Fratres’ - I think it means ‘Brothers’, & Aarvo Part’s deep , even dangerous - devotion is in every phrase, AND every mesmerising silence!
Blessed Be, Maestro: Heaven bless you & keep you safe!

A bit simple

Arvo Pärt is a contemporary composer, so why would you call them "modern" and not him?
I love this but I also love stuff like Massive Attack - Paradise Circus (Zeds Dead Remix).
Unnecessary percussion breaks the feel
No one answered to your comment, and I am glad about that. Sorry, that I could not resist.
Oh my word, I love this piece so much. Further words just fall short.
Is Arvo sad about the our direction? Are we lost souls. Such melancholy from a devout Christian. Its actually heartbreaking.
