Just a few of my Easter seasonal music pieces that I use to shape my heart during Lent:
* Stabat Mater: "The Mother Was Standing", based on the prophecy of Simeon that a sword was to pierce the heart of His mother, Mary (Lk 2:35).
* Beethoven, "Easter Oratorio"
* Triduum: MacMillan's Easter triptych: 'Proclaiming Christ crucified: an offence to the. Jews and folly to the Gentiles.' St Paul's words in his letter to the church of Corinth.
* "Jesus Christ Superstar": always a favorite but especially poignant at Easter.
* Handels "Messiah": traditional considered a Christmas piece but it is really an Easter piece. Enjoy!
* "Passion", by Peter Gabriel: 21 tracks take you from Gesthemane to Golgotha.
