The Garden of Tears
Roll over or click to zoom in
Deeply moving music brings to life the sacred soliloquy of the Savior in Gethsemane. Opening with an expressive Welsh hymn tune, the piece then surrenders to the heartfelt prayers of Jesus as He confronts the shadow of His impending arrest and crucifixion. A bittersweet melody rises like a prayer from a text filled with imagery and emotion. The orchestration is restrained yet powerful, and along with the evocative vocals, creates a lush tone painting. Score and Parts (alto rec/fl, ob, cl 1-2, bn, hn 1-2, perc, hp, pno, solo vn, vn 1-2, va, vc, db) available as a digital download.
