Scholarly writing on the music of Arvo Prt is situated primarily in the fields of musicology, cultural and media studies, and, more recently, in terms of theology/spirituality. Arvo Prt: Sounding the Sacred focuses on the representational dimensions of Prt's music (including the trope of silence), writing and listening past the fact that its storied effects and affects are carried first and foremost as vibrations through air, impressing themselves on the human body. In response, this ambitiously interdisciplinary volume asks: What of sound and materiality as embodiments of the sacred, as historically specific artifacts, and as elements of creation deeply linked to the human sensorium in Prt studies? In taking up these questions, the book "de-Platonizes" Prt studies by demystifying the notion of a single "Prt sound." It offers innovative, critical analyses of the historical contexts of Prt's experimentation, medievalism, and diverse creative work it re-sounds the acoustic, theological, and representational grounds of silence in Prt's music it listens with critical openness to the intersections of theology, sacred texts, and spirituality in Prt's music and it positions sensing, performing bodies at the center of musical experience. Building on the conventional score-, biography-, and media-based approaches, this volume reframes Prt studies around the materiality of sound, its sacredness, and its embodied resonances within secular spaces.
