Tuesday In Holy Week


O God, by the passion of thy blessed Son didst make an instrument of shameful death to be unto us the means of life: Grant us so to glory in the cross of Christ, that we may gladly suffer shame and loss for the sake of thy Son our Savior Jesus Christ; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Dietrich Buxtehude was one of the greatest composers of his generation, and an important influence on Johann Sebastian Bach.¬†¬†Composed in 1680,¬†Membra Jesu nostri¬†(The limbs of our Jesus) is a remarkable cycle of seven cantatas each addressing a different part of Christ’s crucified body: feet, knees, hands, side, chest, heart, and head.¬†¬†The text,¬†Salve mundi salutare, also known as the¬†Rhythmica oratio, was written by Medieval poet Arnulf of Louvain.
Membra Jesu nostri, considered to be the first Lutheran oratorio, represents the peak of 17th century northern German vocal music.¬†¬†Come and listen to this Holy Week meditation offered by some of New York’s finest chamber musicians.
