The Seven Last Words of Our Saviour on the Cross [Orchestral version, 1786]

"…this live 2006 performance… is given in its original orchestral form in the location for which it was intended - the chapel of Santa Cueva in Cádiz… Played on period instruments the performance… expertly motivated by Jordi Savall, achieving a fine blend of solemnity and austerity with intimacy of feeling. ...this is the ultimate in authentic performance." BBC Music Magazine, Christmas 2009 *****

Alia Vox's first ever DVD is not another filmed concert, but a real movie: conceived, lit, filmed and edited as such, in the Santa Cueva church, Cadix, where Haydn's work was premiered in 1787. As we have come to expect from Alia Vox, all the menus and subtitles are available in 7 langages, plus four outstanding bonuses, including a text written and read out especially for Alia Vox by Jose Saramago, Nobel Prize in Literature.
