Together with Christmas, the season of Easter is one of the more significant periods in the Christian calendar - it is central to the Christian belief, and has, over the centuries, inspired much great music of lasting significance.

This unique album is devoted entirely to music suggested by the week of Christ’s Passion - music by the greatest masters from Tudor times to the present day.

The result is a splendid collection of the most devotional and best-loved music of Easter, imaginatively put together, and recorded with surprising fidelity.

Here is a ‘natural’ for the Easter Season - an album which is the answer to many requests for just such a collection.
