Arvo Pärt: Passio

  • St Mary's Cathedral Sydney NSW 2000 Australia (map)
Andrea Solario (fl. 1495–1524), Lamentation, National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. 

Saint Mary’s Cathedral Choir is collaborating with The Song Company to bring enthralling modernist music to the Cathedral.

Arvo Pärt justly enjoys a cult following around the world for his mesmerising music, and his setting of St John’s Passion narrative is particularly revered among the Estonian composer’s work.

Conducted by Antony Pitts, one of the world’s leading experts in Pärt’s Passio, and accompanied by the Omega Ensemble, this concert will be like nothing ever before heard in St Mary’s Cathedral.
