The Seven Words of Jesus Christ on the Cross

Approved

Sébastien Daucé and his musicians take a step aside to explore Lutheran Europe before Bach. We are struck by the expressive vigor of these finely chiseled pages which have retained their power of fascination for today's listeners. Merging old and new, the austerely beautiful language of Buxtehude, Schütz or the rarer Dijkman produces an unexpected echo to the music of their contemporary Charpentier.

Buxtehude: Membra Jesus nostri | Ensemble Correspondences, Sébastien Daucé

Sébastien Daucé and Ensemble Correspondances are renowned for recordings and performances of Baroque masterpieces that merge passion and elegance. They return to BEMF for the final concert of our 2021–2022 Season with a program showcasing two unique approaches to the Passion story from 17th-century Germany. Buxtehude’s seven-part cycle of Passion cantatas, Membra Jesu nostri, is written to texts from a medieval poem offering a mystical meditation of Christ on the cross. Da Jesus an dem Kreuze stund by Schütz focuses on the seven words of Christ on the cross with intense expressivity and diverse stylistic inspirations.
