Easter with Naxos Music of the Passion of Christ Easter with Naxos Culminating in Easter Day and the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, the Christian festival of Holy Week tells one of the most powerfully dramatic stories of all time. The events of that narrative have been marked in artistic triumphs over the centuries, not least in music which has a treasure trove of works devoted to the sequence of the action. Just as the Easter story moves from darkness to light, so the works describing it represent the full spectrum of genres and resources. In this catalogue, you’ll find masterpieces representative of all musical styles: from Bach’s Passion settings to the Requiems of Mozart, Dvořák and Verdi, plus the more contemporary utterances of works such as Penderecki’s St Luke Passion and Thierry Lancino’s Requiem. Other notable recordings include Randall Thompson’s Requiem, the original version of Rossini’s Stabat Mater, Maximilian Steinberg’s long-lost choral masterpiece Passion Week, and Handel’s popular oratorio Messiah. The catalogue comprises choral works intended both for the church and the concert hall, while not forgetting purely instrumental music, such as Olivier Messiaen’s L’Ascension, Sofia Gubaidulina’s Sieben Worte, and brass septet arrangements of works by Gabrieli, Lassus, Palestrina and Victoria. If you’re unsure where to start, why not try one of the sets of collections that bring together gems from across the centuries, from the 15th-century Eton Choirbook to works by 20th-century composers such as Poulenc, Ireland and Vaughan Williams.
