Summary/Abstract: The article attempts to analyze the essential features of Arvo Pärt’s music (aesthetic asceticism, primacy of the word, universal dimension) in terms of compatibility with the criteria of sacredness of music postulated by Joseph Ratzinger/Benedict XVI (reference to the word, integration of the senses and spirit, cosmic character). The author shows that the Estonian music, at least at the level of ideological assumptions, meets these criteria.
