Haydn: The Seven Last Words of Christ on the Cross - Jordi Savall: Le Concert Des Nations

Product Description:

Alia Vox’s first ever DVD is not another filmed concert, but a real movie: conceived, lit, filmed and edited as such, in the Santa Cueva church, Cadix, where Haydn's work was premiered in 1787. As we have come to expect from Alia Vox, all the menus and subtitles are available in 7 langages, plus four outstanding bonuses, including a text written and read out especially for Alia Vox by Jose Saramago, Nobel Prize in Literature. A complete interactive catalogue features musical higlights from each album.
