Arvo Part- The Very Best of,
By
This review is from: Very Best Of Arvo Part (Audio CD)
I had only heard a few selections by this composer, so was unfamiliar with his work.This 2 disc album is a great introduction to his music, both his instrumental & sacred works. His Choral Works are beautiful. Sung in Latin as well as in the Slavonic language of the Orthodox Liturgy, which I assume would be Russian. Unfortunately I cannot distinguish between Estonian & Russian. I highly recommend this CD. His music is a delight to listen to.

Pure Bliss,

This review is from: Very Best Of Arvo Part (Audio CD)
Nothing is as easy and enjoyable as listening to the best music to feel good. And to me Arvo Part is the most enjoyable music there is. First it's not like some classical music where you have to sit through it and it can kind of ware on you after a little while (I'm not knocking classical music I'm just saying). Arvo Part's music is so sublime, so peaceful, it never gets old. And unlike alot of 'Best Of' albums this one is pretty close to it. The only song it's missing which is my favorite is 'Da Pacem Domine.' If you buy this cd but still want more Arvo afterwards buy 'Da Pacem Domine.' Only one song you'll get twice 'Magnificant.' If you do buy this 'Best Of' 2 cd set your kind of stuck if you want all his works unless like I said you buy the 'Da Pacem Domine' album. And that cd with these cds is a pretty hefty collection of Arvo Part to start out with.David R. Hawkins talked about in his book 'Power Vs. Force, how with Kinisiology humans can now measure the conciousness of anything inlcuding music for example. Some people have taken his muscle testing to work and measured various music to calibrate it's conciousness on a scale from 1 to 1000. Think of 1 as death and 1000 as Jesus. The higher the more enlightening. Arvo Part tested the highest. Someone had a good video posted on youtube called the 'musical levels of conciousness,' showing Arvo Part's high calibration but I think they took it down. I believe listening to Arvo Part will improve peoples lives, it's more than just music. Whenever I play Arvo Part in my home with my family and the volume accidentaly goes to high in a certain part of the song or whatever, no one ever gets mad like other music and says "it's too loud." I love the study done in England/London that showed when classical music was played at subway stations and street corners crime dropped by half that month, ,murders were nonexistent and on and on and on. I can only imagine what would happen if they played Arvo Part's music all across the world in the streets, in restaraunts, jails, churches, and homes. What would happen if people traded rap, rock, and death metal for someone like Arvo Part? There is a reason it's called death metal. This is more than just music. This cd and the work Arvo Part has spent his life making goes beyond our entertainment. Music is therapy. I have been searching for the most enlightening music there is and I know of no one better at the moment than Arvo Part. By the way having his music on cd sounds way better than listening to it on your computer from youtube. I should of manned up and bought the cds along time ago. 2 of 4 people found the following review helpful

The Very Best of Arvo Part,

This review is from: Very Best Of Arvo Part (Audio CD)
Marvelous music of Arvo Part. It has shadings of midevil music while being modern. It almost reminds me of Philip Glass in it's structure. Lots of times a melody is built upon like Phillip Glass music but the music of Arvo Part is all his own. It has that mystic feeling of midevil music and an antique feeling as if it was composed in the 1300's. Yet it has the starkness of modern times in it. Definately late night Holy music if there is any such item.'s |
