Today's Afternoon on 3 begins with a live broadcast from St Paul's, Knightsbridge, of music for Passiontide performed by the 麻豆社 Singers, conducted by Peter Phillips.

Each of the three traditional Tenebrae services is represented with music from a different master of Renaissance polyphony. These darkly meditative Lamentations are heard alongside Antonio Lotti's well-known setting of the Crucifixus text.

Introduced by Christopher Cook
