Vasks - Prayer

Pēteris Vasks’ Prayer is an ecstatic invocation of the power of love to overcome misery and despair. Drawing on prayers of Mother Teresa, it takes us into the streets of Calcutta to find courage and hope. Never before performed in Australia.
Sydney Chamber Choir
Orchestra of the Antipodes
Recorded live in performance at City Recital Hall, Sydney, May 28, 2016.

Un choeur qui sert magnifiquement cette si belle partition de Vasks .

[@davehshs651]

Such beautiful, soaring music of hope, wonderfully performed. Vasks finds room for beauty in his music, in a world where so much contemporary "classical" music seems to reflect the dissonance and despair that is prevalent in many world events. Thanks for posting this!

I agree with what is said above. Prima

Divine music! Just as everything else Vasks wrote.

[@manuelmorante9465]

Es intensa, profunda. ¡Gracias por subirla!

Played with very profound sincerity

its a pity that there is not Subtitles in English, or even French. A lovely moving piece by is by all measures a pious composer; Peteris Vasks. I listen to all his works on here, but my favourites by far are his Choral Works.

Beautiful!

Beautiful profound music. Gets deep into the soul.

I used to like Arvo Part, and I still do. But too much of his music is minimalistic. I find much more beauty and wonder in Peteris Vasks.
