Defearon Posted May 12, 2016 Posted May 12, 2016 This piece is about the suffering and the passion of Jesus Christ. " Tenebrae (Latin for "shadows" or "darkness") is a Christian religious service celebrated in the Holy Week within Western Christianity, on the evening before or early morning of Monday, Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday." (Read more at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenebrae) With this composition, I'm trying to let pure emotions lead the melody and the harmonies. The first part is about the suffering, but from the middle part to the last (repeated) canon-like part of the piece, I tried to draw up the salvation.

bkho Posted May 17, 2016 Posted May 17, 2016 Lovely piece. Reminiscent of a Renaissance motet but I love the chromaticism in the harmonies. Quote
