About the Event

In this highly‐anticipated concert, hear the mellifluous sounds of classical music by Johann Sebastian Bach and Arvo Pärt at Verona's treasured and world‐renowned San Pietro in Monastero.
The spiritual and introspective music of Arvo Pärt and JS Bach possesses a rare transcendent quality, and when the works of the two composers are heard interwoven together in a single program, they are truly engaging.
Arvo Pärt may have composed more than 250 years after Bach's death, but the two composers' devotion to religion and the resulting music of worship, contemplation, and portrayal of the highs and lows of human emotions unite them.
