The Stations of the Cross: Jesus is condemned to death -- Jesus carries his cross -- Jesus falls for the first time -- Jesus meets his mother -- Simon of Cyrene helps Jesus to carry the cross -- Veronica offers Jesus her veil to wipe his brow -- Jesus falls the second time -- Jesus meets the women of Jerusalem -- Jesus falls the third time -- Jesus is stripped of his clothes -- Jesus is nailed to the cross -- Jesus dies on the cross -- Jesus is taken down from the cross -- Jesus is buried in the tomb.
Matthew Schellhorn, piano.
Recording made in the Curtis Auditorium, CIT Cork School of Music from 1st - 3rd June 2011.
The 70-minute Stations for solo piano very much follows this path. It is based on the Catholic devotion of the Stations of the Cross- fourteen scenes from Christ's condemnation by Pilate to his burial in the tomb. Pictorial or sculptural representations of the Stations themselves appear in most Roman Catholic churches- they may be more or less elaborate, and the largest churches may even have a small chapel for each Station. Wilson's setting retains the devotional, tableau-like sequence, but prioritises clarity over decoration.
