Great compositions are here. Maybe one of my favourite songs in any genre I was really happy when I first found this.

Beautiful, though I largely prefer the works of Glass and Reich and Feldman (who is obviously very different to Glass and Reich, but not actually a world away from Pärt I feel) to those of Pärt. That said, give me Arvo Pärt over John Tavener any day. Also, I think I may prefer Alina to this, but it's very close.

One of my favourite albums. Really delicate sounds that almost twinkle, bringing themselves to life now and again, as though the instruments are talking to each other - Modern Classical Minimalism at it's finest.

Cantus in Memory of Benjamin Britten is a highlight - and requires tissues at hand.
