Pari intervallo, für Klavier vierhändig oder zwei Klaviere

Arvo Pärt: Pari intervallo, para piano a cuatro manos o dos pianos (1976/2008)

"Pari intervallo" was composed in 1976 on the occasion of the death of a friend and is dedicated to his memory. The basic musical material consists of two parts which move exactly parallel to each other, so that the interval between them is always the same- hence the title. "Pari intervallo" is reminiscent of a chorale prelude which might be prefaced with the lines from Romans 14/8: "If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord."(Arvo Pärt)

This 2008 version is playable as piano duet or with two pianos. For intermediate to advanced pianists.

Dur. c. 5'30"
