'7': Today's broken world cries out to the Lord on Good Friday
By Linda Bordoni
They are the words and the inspiration at the heart of Joseph Haydn’s"The Seven Last Words of Christ on the Cross“, commissioned for a Good Friday service in 1786. His work for full classical orchestra consists of seven main meditative sections that are framed by a slow introduction and a fast “Earthquake” conclusion.
Entitled “7”, Filotei’s re-reading of Haydn’s oratorio comes to life in the sonorities provided by the percussions of the Ars Ludi ensemble - that Filotei explains, reflect the noise and chaos of today’s world, - an electronic score, and the voice of cantor, Patrizo La Placa, a baritone who sings with the Pontifical Sistine Chapel Choir.
