This brief choral cantata is well suited for use during Holy Week as a Tenebrae observance or as a time of reflection. A musical “service of shadows,” Candles of Grace is filled with emotive texts and deeply expressive music portraying the events of the Passion. A thoughtful orchestration adorns this chamber cantata with refined beauty and grace, giving directors an instrumental or track option for their presentations. From the delicate opening phrases to the fragile whispered ending, this work is essential for remembering and experiencing the suffering of the Lord. Songs include: Prelude (The Shadow Falls); Bring Me to the Cross; The Garden Call; Man of Sorrows, What a Name; Jesus, Lover of My Soul; Keep Me Near the Cross; Scenes from a Solemn Cross; Epilogue.
