Friday FIVE: May 23 - Which Was the Son Of...
Description
This week on the Friday Five, I’m sharing a choral piece that surprised me with its beauty and depth, even though the text is a list of names. I first heard it live in 2023 during a performance by The Tallis Scholars, and it’s stayed with me ever since. In this episode, I’ll give you three reasons why I think it’s worth your time, too.
Here’s a link to the Tallis Scholars’ recording of Arvo Pärt’s “Which Was the Son of…”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5recq2Ff2P8
