Arvo Pärt's minimalistic masterpiece "Tabula Rasa" set to ballet.

Note: I had mentioned Arvo Pärt's music last night to N as we were discussing music composition across time, and style in music. While N knows what she is talking about when it comes to music, given that she was fed classical music right from the cradle, I just have to go with my undeveloped animal instincts for certain kind of sounds. So based on such imprecise criteria, Arvo Pärt's melancholic and sparse music ranks high among the handful of contemporary classical composers I know of.

These are few other clips containing Pärt's music, which I found on YouTube:

1. Spiegel im Spiegel
2. Fratres I
3. Pas de
4. Da pacem Domine
5. First clip from "Preludes for a Fugue", a documentary on Pärt
6. Bjork's conversation with Pärt

Also an older melancholic post that mentions Pärt
