Choral Music for ANZAC Day 2005

“Composures”

Monday 25 April 2005, 7.30pm

National War Memorial
Buckle St
Wellington

Directed by Alastair Carey

The Woman with the Alabaster Box: Arvo Pärt 1935-
Versa est in Luctum: Alonso Lobo 1555?-1617
This Worlde’s Joie: Arnold Bax 1883-1953

Within the liturgical year, the season of Lent focuses primarily on themes of departure, recollection and penitence. Holy Week, leading up to the Crucifixion on Good Friday, has inspired some of sacred music’s most inspired compositions.

This ANZAC Day meditation in music at the National War Memorial Hall of Memories presents a selection of the most moving Lenten music, written by the finest composers of the Renaissance period, plus four penitential anthems by 20th century composers.
