Stainer's Crucifixion

for 1 hour, 30 mins
St Nicholas, Harpenden
Church Green (right in the town centre) Harpenden, AL5 2TP, United Kingdom

Stainer's Oratorio 'The Crucifixion', sung by the Choir of St Nicholas Church. This piece tells the last days of Jesus' life in words and music, the Biblical narrative interspersed with choruses, solos and hymns (including the well known 'All for Jesus'). The piece is described as a spiritual vehicle to convey "theology and scripture at its most profound", and the melodies "as tools of glorification for God".
Bring Palm Sunday to a close and set the scene for Holy Week with this devotional performance.
