Het Pärt Gevoel - Het universum van Arvo Pärt
Documentary about the most celebrated living composer of our time: Arvo Pärt.
Please note that this film is in English, Dutch, German and French language, with Dutch subtitles.
The Estonian composer is considered to be something of a recluse. But at work he is the total opposite, combining an incredible sensitivity with humour and energy. His intense collaboration with the Cello Octet Amsterdam forms the heart of this documentary which sheds a bright light on Pärt’s universe. A universe not only inhabited by classical musicians like Tõnu Kaljuste, Candida Thompson or Daniel Reuss, but also by choreographers like Jiří Kylián, filmmakers like Alain Gomis and young techno musicians like Kara-Lis Coverdale. They are all searching for that Pärt feeling.
Paul Hegeman, Netherlands, 2019, 75 min. English, Dutch, German & French spoken, Dutch subtitles.
