Classical Music Discoveries

Cappella Romana has prioritized Arvo Pärt’s music for over thirty years. It gave the first US performance of Pärt’s Passio by a US ensemble in 1993 directed by Paul Hillier, with national broadcast on NPR. Cappella Romana has continued to perform Pärt’s music to the present day, including the program on this recording in British Columbia in 2009 and at Cappella Romana’s week-long, sold-out Arvo Pärt Festival in 2017.
