The second album from the choir of Clare College, Cambridge in their series based on the major festivals in the Anglican calendar and, like „Veni Emmanuel“, produced by John Rutter.
In this richly varied Passiontide sequence, polyphonic settings of the great texts of Holy Week are interwoven with a plainchant rendition of the mournful „Stabat Mater“: the traditional medieval poem meditating on the death of Jesus and the grief of his mother.
Following on from last November’s „Veni Emmanuel: Music for Advent“, the choir under the direction of Graham Ross turn their attention towards the music of Holy Week, featuring a diverse range of works from Victoria, Lassus and Tallis to Bach, Stainer and Duruflé interwoven with a plainchant rendition of the mournful Stabat mata – the traditional medieval poem meditating on the death of Jesus and the grief of his mother.
‘Warm, yet pure-toned emotion pours from these 27 voices, and a fine corps of basses grounds the whole with exemplary gravitas’ (Choir & Organ)
