The Stations of the Cross is an especially beloved devotion during Holy Week. Through its 14 stations, the Christian contemplates the Passion of Christ.

While it is most typical to follow the meditation through a few readings, it is also possible to delve into the events of the Good Friday through the music.

Hakuna

The Spanish group Hakuna has its own version of the Stations of the Cross, entitled “Passion”. The songs on the album are a sincere prayer in several voices that help us to slowly contemplate the surrender of Christ.

Luispo

The priest Luispo performs his own version of the sung Stations of the Cross, in an intimate interpretation that springs from a long contemplation of the Passion of Christ.

Athenas

The famous singer Athenas covers the Stations of the Cross based on the meditations of St. John Henry Newman. The songs mix music with guided prayer.

Franz Liszt

For lovers of classical music, Liszt's Via Crucis is the perfect meditation to enter into the mysteries of Good Friday. The organ and the voices of the choir predominate.

Marcel Dupré

Marcel Dupré's version is also performed on the organ, but is less intense than Liszt's Stations of the Cross. It is another option for those who prefer to delve into the Passion of Christ through classical music.
