Georgijs Osokins – For Arvo – Vinyl LP

Georgijs Osokins, the first Baltic (Latvian) pianist to establish himself at the highest level on the international music scene, brings a deeply personal and eloquent perspective to the stage. He takes on an extraordinary project: an ultimate collection of Arvo Pärt’s music for solo piano. In celebration of the Estonian composer’s 90th birthday in 2025 and beyond, Osokins offers a fresh and invigorating interpretation of Pärt’s spiritual and deeply moving compositions. The music for his debut album on Deutsche Grammophon was recorded on a century-old Blue Steinway and unlocks a mesmerising range of overtones and an unparalleled depth of sound. Each piece tells a story, evoking emotions that resonate universally, making this album not just a musical experience but a profound journey for the soul.
