Music for Passiontide on BBC Radio 3

This Wednesday at 2.00 pm The BBC Singers will perform music for Passiontide with the conductor Peter Phillips. Each of the three traditional Tenebrae services is represented with music from a different master of Renaissance polyphony. These darkly meditative Lamentations are heard alongside Lotti’s well-known setting of the Crucifixus text.
