CONCERT: AVOCAL CDM | FESTIVAL RENAIXEMENT
05 September 2024/ Spain / Valencia, Spain
Interpreters, critics, historians, and lovers of Renaissance sacred music have praised and recognized the importance and quality of Tomás Luis de Victoria’s Officium Hebdomadae Sanctae. Even the great musicologist Samuel Rubio described his eighteen responsories as a true retable of the Passion of Christ.
This masterpiece is composed with a deep sensitivity to the Passion and the atmosphere of darkness during Holy Week. The different compositions reflect the emotional and spiritual intensity of this liturgical period, capturing both the solemnity and tragedy of the crucifixion and the hope and redemption associated with the resurrection. Victoria uses harmonies and musical textures to convey a wide range of emotions, from anguish and pain to serenity and hope, creating a deeply moving musical experience.
We hope this selection captivates you to the point of feeling that it transcends time and space.
