Tu Rex Domine, Christe!
Okay, ignore yesterday's post, I'm declaring this rad contemporary classical music week. Part's music is really wonderful, and the Te Deum here (well, what they excerpt from it) is probably his best piece. His late work has been getting very popular in the past few years, which it really deserves. Although, I would make a note that the extremely stripped-down style he's been working with in recent decades can be understood much better when you also know about the earlier, louder and nastier stuff that it grew out of (his cello concerto, the early symphonies, and so on).
