"Pärt færdiggjorde 'Adam's Lament' i 2009, og sin særlige meditative dybsindighed har han ikke rokket ved. Men han har flere farver på paletten end vanligt. Opbuddet af dygtige musikere åbner for Pärts gådefulde sammenhænge med det, der minder om en varm, knugende omfavnelse af lytteren. Det er utroligt ømt og nærværende".

"Musikken vælter frem i kulsorte følelseskaskader. Mørke, tætte og voldsomme vokalklange bakket op af kuldslåede strygerfigurer ... Det kan godt være, Adam's Lament som album betragtet ikke er det mest ultimativt helstøbte, Arvo Pärt har begået for den renfærdige, ultravellydende ECM-label ... Men er man med på præmissen, nemlig at Pärt uden blusel graver tilbage i middelalderens klange og ned i den ortodokse kirkes hvælvingetunge vokalskatte for på ny at vride traditionen - så er titelværket en stærk og vellykket tonesætning af den gamle munks smertelige og alvorlige tekst".

"These choral pieces carry an additional emotional clout ... after fine, affecting performances by all ensembles of the more intense pieces, two light-footed lullabies, sung sweetly but never cloyingly by the Chamber Choir, leaving us with some sense of comfort".

"Arvo Pärt's standing as one of the most important choral composeres of his generation is surely confirmed on this highly impressive recording ... From the powerful opening gesture based on a series of plagal cadences to a foreboding final section, Adam's Lament encompasses a diverse and at times exhilarating range of dissonance and consonant moods ... There's a real sense of drive and momentum to Pärt's recent music, a quality that may come as a surprise to those familiar with his earlier works".
