"Tenebrae factae sunt" - and it was dark. Mt. 27:45 During the tenebrae service the candles represent Christ and His apostles who abandoned Him one by one. The last candle is taken from its place and is hidden. All becomes dark while the choir sings the heart-wrenching 'Miserere'. Allegri's famous 'Miserere' was only sung in the Vatican for 200 years until Mozart transcribed it. Come hear this amazing piece of music and more at Tenebrae Wednesday, March 28, at 7:30pm. | Saint John Cantius Church
