Septem Verba Christi in Cruce

Album by Joseph Haydn & Le Concert des Nations & Jordi Savall

Septem Verba Christi in Cruce is an orchestral work by Joseph Haydn, composed in 1786. Rooted in the Classical style, it comprises a series of solemn instrumental movements that employ restrained melodic lines, expressive harmonic shifts and varied textures to create a meditative liturgical atmosphere, and Haydn subsequently arranged the work for string quartet and for an oratorio setting, giving it a distinct place in his catalogue.
First released: 2nd October 2006
