The original version of the piece is for piano.
"Für Alina" was first performed in Tallinn in 1976, along with six other works, after a long preparatory period in Pärt's life as a composer. This concert was the first to introduce his new signature style of composition, referred to as the tintinnabuli style.
"Für Alina" was dedicated to a family friend's eighteen year-old daughter who had just gone to study in London.
