The Song and The Story 
O sacred head, sore wounded

(Good Friday – Friday 2 April)

Revd Dr Sam Wells describes the significance of a piece of music set for the day and some of the story of how and why it came to be written, with recordings from St Martin’s Voices.

Each podcast will be broadcast 15-minutes before each major service during Lent, Holy Week and Easter.
