The Passion of Christ refers to the sufferings Jesus Christ endured for mankind's redemption, from the agony in the garden of Gethsemane until His death on Calvary. Jesus suffered for human salvation and sacrificed Himself to cleanse human sins. As the Lord of the universe and the Hope of the world, He purifies mankind, opens up the gates of universe and brings us up to a higher spiritual level, where from we can have access to universal love and find the authentic essence of existence in the universe, which is our eternal soul.
The program of this recital intends to take us from the Passion to the universal journey.
The church organ is a very expressive instrument, used hundreds of years before, to show the glory and beauty of God and the harmony in the universe.
