Via Crucis meditated with saints
A choral work that synthesizes the wisdom of the great spiritual masters of the Church throughout the centuries.
St. John Henry Newman
The English cardinal and saint proposes meditations of great depth, where each station becomes an examination of personal conscience.
Saint Josemaría Escrivá
The founder of Opus Dei proposes a text of a closeness that appeals directly to the personal relationship with Jesus Christ, transforming each station into a channel of prayer for ordinary life.
St. Mary Magdalene of Pazzi
Marked by baroque mysticism, this spiritual exercise reflects the intensity of divine love through the sensitivity of the Carmelite saint.
Ernestina de Champourcín
The great poet of the Generation of '27 elevates the Passion to a literary jewel in her poetry book Presence in the dark. Her fourteen stations merge the poetic avant-garde with a mature, stripped and deeply feminine spirituality.
