The Song and The Story
A journey from Ash Wednesday to Easter, made through hymns and anthems associated with the Sundays of Lent and the major days of Holy Week.
Revd Dr Sam Wells links the themes of the music with the background of its composition, while St Martin’s Voices sing each piece in the sanctuary of St Martin-in-the-Fields.
