DESCRIPTION:TEMPLE SOLOISTS\nJonathan Stone violin\nJulian Bliss clarinet\
 nTim Lowe cello\nJames Cheung piano\nOur Holy Week Festival ends with Oliv
 ier Messiaen’s profoundly spiritual Quartet for the End of Time. Written
  while he was a prisoner of war in German captivity\, the piece was premie
 red outdoors by Messiaen and his fellow prisoners using the instruments th
 ey could lay their hands on\, in freezing temperatures\, to a rapt audienc
 e of hundreds of inmates. "Never was I listened to with such rapt attentio
 n and comprehension" the composer later wrote. The music seems to touch th
 e far edges of human experience. It combines the exotic dance rhythms and 
 birdsong which permeate so much of Messiaen's music\, with astonishing dep
 ictions of radiant eternity\, inspired by the Book of Revelation.\n\nDurat
 ion: approximately 50 minutes
