The Christ's Passion: Chór Juranda sings Gorzkie żale (Bitter Complaints), 1935

Chór Juranda (The Jurand's Choir) with Organ - Gorzkie żale (Bitter Complaints), Pieśń wielkopostna (The Lenten Hymn), Syrena-Electro 1935 (Poland) NOTE: Gorzkie Żale (The Bitter Complaints) is a para-liturgic ceremony held in Polish Catholic Church in last 400 years, as a choral (a capella or with organs) contemplation of Christ's Pasion. Since the end of the 17th century, it has been sung in Polish churches - usually on Sunday afternoons - during all 40 days of the Lent. That beautiful old poetical text - written by anonymous monk or by several autors - has been for centuries an essential part of Polish religious literature heritage. The brilliant performance by Chór Juranda from 1935, belongs to absolute rarities and I am glad, I can present it here. Happy Easter to all of you, Dear You Tube friends!
