about
PRIMEMOVER’s five “stations” pieces are based on the centuries-old Stations of the Cross, a meditation on the sufferings of Christ that is rehearsed around the world in varying languages, repeated year after year, uniting a frail humanity in one grounded moment of pain on the way to hope.
All five pieces feature voice, both sung and spoken. Led by an author, a theologian, and a poet – individuals of word and of the Word – the spoken-word choir featured on three of the five pieces acts as both a character in the familiar Station narrative while providing commentary on the events as they unfold, once in time and space, and again in all times and all spaces.
lyrics
Texts spoken by different parties in the week leading up to Jesus’ death. Words of prayer, cursing, praise, fury, hope, despair - from disciples, politicians, priests, crowds, soldiers, the curious. Everyone is speaking but Jesus.
Vibrant and energetic EP of experimental songs and loopy post rock drone. Includes the score to: vimeo.com/74033442 Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 13, 2013
