Today is Arvo Pärt's 85th birthday. I am sure that there will be myriad tributes. This video, released today, is saxophonist Amy Dickson and pianist Catherine Milledge performing Pärt's Spiegel in Spiegel, from Dickson's new CD Smile. The work was written in 1978, just before Pärt's departure from Estonia and only a couple of years after Pärt first introduced his, now famous, tinntinnabular style.
