Description:
An a cappella SATB choir provides a truly haunting and somewhat trudging background for the procession with the cross on Good Friday. The verses are sung when the cross is held high, each time growing harmonically. The assembly’s short response, connecting the verses to the refrain, is prompted by the choir.
