On Good Friday, Mar. 21, at 7 pun., the Grace Church Choir, soloists and cellist under the direction of Samuel Carabetta, Organist and Choirmaster will present “A Meditation on the Passion of Christ, with Carols.” Carols are most often associated with the Advent and Christmas seasons, but they exist for different occasions. Many carols are replete with references and imagery of more than one aspect of Christ’s life and ministry, making them equally, if not more appropriate for use at Passiontide. Now intersperse ancient and intoxicating plainsong amidst the carols??the combination is extraordinarily powerful and moving! The service will include carols written by Benjamin Britten, Elizabeth Fhston, Tchaikovsky and Vaughan Williams. Now sung annually at St. Johns College, Cambridge, England, this poignant service brings to the season of Lent, the feeling of the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols for Christmas, first sung at Kings College, Cambridge, England. The service is divided into three parts - Gethsemane, the Trial, and the Crucifixion - each of which contains Old Testament prophecy regarding the coming of a suffering Savior, the relevant narratives from the gospels of Mark, Matthew and Luke, sung to the ancient plainsong chant; and textually appropriate plainsong antiphons.
