The Passion's Symphony (Cinematic Orchestral)

[OVERTURE - Full Orchestra] [INTRO - Narrator] In the garden, 'neath the olive trees, Where shadows dance in moonlit breeze, A tale of love, of sacrifice, Begins with whispers, calm and nice. [MOVEMENT 1: The Arrestation of Jesus] [INTRO - Strings and Woodwinds] [Judas (in a haunting tone, male soprano):] "Master, greetings with a kiss, In this night of shadowed bliss." [Jesus (calm yet sorrowful, male tenor):] "Judas, dost thou betray me so? With a kiss, dost thou strike this blow?" [Narrator:] Betrayed by one he called a friend, To the Sanhedrin, now they send, The Son of Man, to face the night, A journey fraught with pain and plight. [MOVEMENT 2: The Denial of Peter] [INTRO - Soft Strings] [Servant Girl (inquisitive, female mezzo-soprano):] "Surely you were with the Nazarene, In his company, you’ve surely been." [Peter (in distress, male baritone):] "I know him not, I do declare, No part of him, no bond to share." [Narrator:] Thrice denied before the dawn, A rooster’s crow, the truth is drawn, Peter weeps, his heart in two, His Master’s words now proven true. [MOVEMENT 3: The Trial Before Pilate] [INTRO - Brass and Percussion] [Pilate (in a stern tone, male bass):] "Are you the King of the Jews, they say? What truth have you, what word this day?" [Jesus (calm and resolute, male tenor):] "My kingdom is not of this place, In truth I stand, before your face." [Pilate (conflicted, male bass):] "What is truth, what judgment here? Shall I release this man, or yield to fear?" [Crowd (chanting, mix of male baritone and female soprano 2):] "Crucify him, let him be, Barabbas free, set Barabbas free!" [Narrator:] Condemned by those he came to save, To Golgotha, the path they pave, Bearing the cross, the weight of sin, The journey of redemption to begin. [MOVEMENT 4: The Way of the Cross] [INTRO - Strings and Choir] [Mary (with anguish, female soprano):] "Oh, my son, my precious light, Bear this cross, this dreadful plight." [Soldier (in a commanding tone, male baritone):] "Move along, to Calvary, There your fate, your destiny." [Narrator:] Through streets and jeers, the Savior trod, A heavy cross, the path to God, Falls and rises, pain and strife, Marching toward the end of life. [MOVEMENT 5: The Crucifixion] [INTRO - Full Orchestra with Choir] [Centurion (in a loud voice, male bass):] "Behold the man, the King of Jews, Nailed to the cross, with iron screws." [Jesus (with deep sorrow, male tenor):] "Father, forgive them, they know not, What they do, this painful lot." [Narrator:] Nailed and lifted, high to see, A sacrifice for you and me, The sky grows dark, the earth does quake, As Heaven weeps, and hearts do break. [MOVEMENT 6: The Death of Jesus] [INTRO - Soft Strings and Harp] [Jesus (with finality, male tenor):] "My God, my God, why forsake me? Into thy hands, my spirit be." [Narrator:] With final breath, the curtain tears, Salvation wrought through pain and prayers, The Son of God, now laid to rest, In earthly tomb, the world’s behest. [MOVEMENT 7: The Burial] [INTRO - Gentle Strings] [Joseph of Arimathiea (in a somber tone, male baritone):] "In this tomb, he shall reside, A gift for him, our Savior, guide." [Mary (with sorrow, female soprano):] "Gently now, lay him down, In this tomb, no earthly crown." [Narrator:] In the quiet, in the still, The Savior rests, his task fulfilled, Await the dawn, the day anew, The risen Lord, his love in view. [FINALE - Full Orchestra and Choir (mix of male baritone and female soprano 2):] From death to life, the story soars, The Son of God, forevermore, Love and sacrifice entwined, A symphony for all mankind. [OUTRO - Soft Strings Fading] And so the tale of love divine, In music, memory, forever shine.
