Synopsis
This work describes the psychological moments that Jesus might have experienced before and during the Via Crucis: the anxiety about his destiny, the feeling of abandonment by his Father, and his resignation to the expected death.
The snare drum is played using all its possible resources, evoking a contemporary atmosphere that fits within the religious and profoundly tragic human context.
