Before the Dawn - Music for Good Friday
About
Experience an evening of profound and moving choral music for Good Friday, tracing the final hours of Christ’s Passion through some of the most powerful works in the sacred repertoire.Beginning in the stillness of Gethsemane and moving through betrayal, trial and crucifixion, this program unfolds through luminous motets by Lasso, Victoria, Croce and Bruckner, alongside deeply expressive works including Lotti’s Crucifixus, Casals’ O vos omnes, and the haunting spiritual Never Said a Mumb’ling Word.
The program culminates in Allegri’s extraordinary Miserere, one of the most iconic works in the choral canon.
Before the Dawn invites audiences into a space of reflection, contemplation and extraordinary choral sound — a fitting musical meditation for Good Friday.
