90 Years of Arvo Pärt: A Reflection. Our Garden

15.11.2025
Location: St Edward’s School, the Olivier Hall, Oxford, UK
Time: 17:00

Arvo Pärt’s Our Garden is a piece with a smile on its face – lively, jaunty and dramatic. It was written expressly for children to sing, and was one of the composer’s earliest works, before his aesthetic had settled into the more meditative style we know him by today. At this concert it’s performed by local children’s choirs, with singing mentors from the National Youth Choir joining the team as well as a small ensemble of professional musicians. The piece will be performed alongside selections from Pärt’s other work for children’s choir Songs from Childhood.

This concert will have a BSL interpreter and will be great for families.

Featuring the UK premiere of a new arrangement of Our Garden for ensemble by Tauno Aints.
