This Good Friday we explore the parallel symbolism of the crucifixion of Christ, and the lives of the fallen in this centennial year of the end of WWI. Featuring Parry’s elegiac Songs of Farewell and Harold Darke’s little known cantata As the leaves fall, alongside Renaissance motets for Passiontide and poems by Wilfrid Owen and Siegfried Sassoon.
