      I came to know Marcel Dupré music 55 years ago, as a singer in a church with a "Cavailler Colle" organ, only 21 stops, but what an instrument. The organist played some Dupré piece, I'm not sure what, and we listened to recordings of Dupré from Paris. Since then I have stopped whenever I see the name Dupré.

    This work by John Stainer remains my favorite. i give it to the bass voice for a good interpretation. the Tenor is `good too. I am a baritone voice who performed this work for about 30 years now with outstanding performance and I must say this performance is outstanding. a very good chorus. Kudos! can i have the email contact of the Music Director?

    As a soprano in my local church choir I sang this on several Good Friday evenings during the late 50's and early 60's. before leaving the choir after my voice broke. I can still remember it quite well now but in the early 2000's I had the opportunity to sing it again with two local choirs and had to totally re-learn it as a Bass. I've sung a lot of sacred music in my life but this will always be at the top of my list.
