A Choral Tenebrae Service

word meaning "Shadows." tenebrae depicts through the extinguishing of candles and the dimming of lights in the sanctuary the flight of the disciples and the approaching crucifixion. THIS VERSION will be

accompanied by a 20-voice choir. The texts were chosen from among the many Lenten hymns that have been traditional in most churches in recent times, the oldest one ( "Ah. Holy Jesus") going back as far as the 16th Century After each reading the choir will sing to heighten the dramatic essence of the Holy week drama.
