Renowned for spiritually profound musical settings of sacred Latin texts, Estonian composer Arvo Pärt has also set many Eastern Orthodox hymns. In this concert, patterned on an Orthodox service of supplication (Paraklesis or Moleben), Cappella Romana offers a selection of Pärt's English and Slavonic works including Triodion and excerpts of his monumental Kanon Pokajanen.

After Cappella Romana's MusicFest Vancouver debut in 2003, the ensemble returns to the festival this summer, with an additional performance on Salt Spring Island.
