As each part of the service concludes, candles are snuffed out, until the church is left in complete darkness, symbolizing the abandonment of Jesus by his followers and the approaching darkness of his death. A final candle—representing Christ—is hidden, then returned, hinting at the resurrection.This service is known for its haunting music, featuring Gregorian chant, polyphonic motets, and its reflective, almost theatrical atmosphere.Tickets are NOT required to attend.The Rev.
