The Crucifixion

Album by Sir John Stainer

The Crucifixion is an oratorio by English composer Sir John Stainer, composed in 1887. The work is built around accessible hymn melodies within clear choral textures accompanied by organ, and it is characteristic of late Victorian Anglican church music where it was intended for parish and cathedral choirs.
