Alpha & Omega Chorus & Orch. - Martin Emslie: Omega and Alpha - The End and the Beginning

Live World Premi�re performance, Wells Cathedral 13th April 2013 Omega & Alpha, the new oratorio written by Martin Emslie, is a powerful re-telling of the Easter Passion story. It takes us from the prophecy of the arrival of the Messiah into Jerusalem, to the traumatic events of the crucifixion and the subsequent resurrection. It examines the confusions that must have been in the minds of the people around Jesus as he embarks on his journey to death and his unwillingness to save himself. It charts the Omega (the end) of Jesus� life and the Alpha (the beginning) of Christianity.
