Search - Father Pierucci :: De Profundis: The Art of Dying

Father Pierucci's first cantata to words by Regina Derieva, Via Crucis was described as a major find and a remarkable work by critics. Pierucci writes in a tonal and very listenable style but with a distinctive voice of his own, and this new work, using a chamber ensemble rather than organ, takes as its basis a short, haunting motif, used in variation form in all the movements. This work, like Via Crucis is highly recommended to choirs and choral societies.
