With Language. German. Lent and Passiontide. The Stations of the Cross are a centuries-old element in worship services which are firmly anchored in the visual arts.

"Via crucis". and Marcel Dupre, with his ingenious improvisation which later became a composition, are practically the only representatives of this genre of composition in music history. The present work for a cappella choir, three dancers, timpani, baritone and soprano soloists, oboe and organ offers a new approach to the literary model of the Stations of the Cross.

Three dancers dance the three Stations of "falling" in a setting filled with black light, accompanied by a speech motet provided on CD. The organ appears in a solo capacity and as an accompaniment to the solo singers. The timpani announce the horror of death by crucifixion. Together this collage-like work forms a magnificent whole. The duration is 60 minutes.
