About MV | The Seven Last Words of Christ

Musica Vera present their spring concert for this year, featuring Haydn’s oratorio, The Seven Last Words of Christ. This beautiful, but rarely heard gem was originally a set of orchestral pieces for a Good Friday service, but was later transformed into a choral work. In this performance, each of the seven movements will be paired with a corresponding work, with music by Victoria, Morley, Wesley, Walton and others. Do join us for what promises to be an evocative and moving musical reflection on the Passion story.
