Tintinnabulation is an area I sometimes wander into when I am searching for answers—in my life, my music, my work. In my dark hours, I have the certain feeling that everything outside this one thing has no meaning. The complex and many-faceted only confuses me, and I must search for unity. What is it, this one thing, and how do I find my way to it? Traces of this perfect thing appear in many guises—and everything that is unimportant falls away.

A need to concentrate on each sound, so that every blade of grass would be as important as a flower.

Quote of the day

What we observe is not nature itself but nature exposed to our method of questioning. Our scientific work in physics consists in asking questions about nature in the language that we possess and trying to get an answer from experiment by the means that are at our disposal.
Werner Heisenberg

Born: September 11, 1935 (age 89)
Bio: Arvo Pärt is an Estonian composer. Pärt writes compositions that reflect his study of medieval musical forms. His work also reveals his deep Christian faith. He developed what he named tintinnabuli, or the tintinnabulation method of composition, derived from the Latin for "little bells", which can attribute why Pärt's music typically revolves around the notes of a single triad, or "three bells" as he states.
