Music for Holy Week

Friday 2 April, 7:30pm


Pre-concert talk 7pm

Wellington Cathedral of St Paul
Cnr Molesworth and Hill St
Wellington

Directed by Michael Stewart

The trial and crucifixion of Christ, marked each year in the period before Easter known as Holy Week, inspired some of the finest music of the Renaissance. Beginning with the joyous procession of Palm Sunday and proceeding through the anguish of the Crucifixion to the first report of the empty tomb on Easter Sunday, The Tudor Consort leads you in a meditation of music for Holy Week. Featuring Gregorio Allegri's famed setting of the Miserere, Antonio Lotti’s Crucifixus, and interwoven with J. S. Bach’s renderings of Lutheran chorales, this promises to be a spiritually transcendent evening.

This concert is part of the 2021 Performance Series.
