A Meditation on the Death of Christ, with readings and hymns. Taking inspiration from the traditional Lenten devotion of Stations of the Cross, this musical meditation seeks to engage with the theological crux of Lent and Passiontide. Given the inevitability and hope of Easter, it can be easy to forsake the most sacrificial aspects of our Lenten journey; it is the equivalent of Lent without Holy Week. This concert will allow time to meditate on the most challenging questions posed by this journey: the sacrificial and saving nature of the Death of God, articulated in two of the most profound settings of the Requiem Mass Ordinary. Join the critically acclaimed Luceat Choir for their second concert in partnership with the Centre for Theology, Law and Culture at Pusey House, in the House’s stunning and atmospheric chapel.
