Description
Arvo Pärt composed Vater Unser, the German version of the Lord’s Prayer, for boy’s voice and piano in 2005. Unlike many of his other works, this one was spontaneous, done in a single breath, giving it an immediate effect.
On 4 July 2011 Arvo Pärt performed his Vater unser for Pope Benedict XVI at a ceremony in the Vatican celebrating the 60th anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood. Pärt also presented the Pope with a copy of the manuscript, which is dedicated to him.
At the suggestion of Andreas Scholl, Pärt arranged it in 2013 for countertenor and strings.
