Sarasa Chamber Music Ensemble Haydns Seven Last Words of Christ
8:00 PM - 9:30 PM Saturday, March 26, 2016
Location:
Swedenborg Chapel, 50 Quincy Street, Cambridge, MA
For this year's Easter weekend, Sarasa will be celebrating Joseph Haydn's personal view of the Passion story with his Seven Last Words of Christ, Op. 51 for string quartet and narrator. While many of us are accustomed to attending a performance of JS Bach's Passions according to St John or St Matthew during the Paschal Season, this intimate account transmits a very direct and honest light from Haydn's understanding of human nature.
