Secrets of The Armed Man

Music for Holy Week broadcasts on Radio New Zealand Concert this week

The Tudor Consort will be on the airwaves a fair bit this coming week as RNZ Concert broadcasts two Good Friday concerts from years gone by. On Monday 26 March at 7.30pm you can hear our Good Friday presentation from 2014, featuring settings of the Lamentation by Lassus, Tallis and Cardoso alongside the stunning ‘Stabat Mater’ of John Browne and William Byrd’s masterpiece ‘Ne irascaris Domine’. And at 1pm on Good Friday (a few hours before our next concert!) RNZ will broadcast last year’s concert - Music for Holy Week: The Desolate City, commemorating the wartime destruction of Dresden and Hiroshima, and the cry of the persecuted Catholic Church, lamenting the loss of the spiritual Jerusalem in Protestant England. Our Music Director Michael Stewart will also be interviewed on Upbeat at 1pm this coming Wednesday to talk about Eternal Sacrifice - stay tuned!
