Easter Program—-
is given to the Chorus.and the
descriptive words to the three
soloists. s
Perhapfc the most poignarft hum
ber in the whole score is the
fourth word, “My God, why hast
thou forsaken me?” which is writ-
ten as a baritone solo as climax
and for dramatic contrast with
the bitter and taunting words
sung by the chorus, “If thou be
Jesus Son of the Father, now from
the cross descend Thou.”
A tenor solo presents the sixth
word, “Father into Thou hands
I commend My Spirit”, with a
‘quiet- and sublime expression of
faith contained in the choral set-
ting of the words “My Father art
Thou and Savior.”
Exceedingly weird and specta-
cular music is used for the’ ‘sev-
enth word, “It is finished”, to
indicate the darkness which des-
cended upon the earth. The word
is sung by the chorus with the de-
scription of the darkness and the
rending of the veil of the tern
pie given to vivid mtTsic for the
solo voices. Ah abrupt musical
change introduces the final short
and . simple ■ prayer, "Christ, we
all adore Thee” softly sung by
the full chorus with solo voices.
Rehearsals of the Oratorio So-
ciety for the past few weeks have
been intensive.
Mr. Allen Peebles is president
of the Oratorio Society and- Mrs.
Lee Ellzey is secretary.
The public is cordially invited
and welcomed to this presenta-
tion of “The Seven Last Words
of Christ”
