7.00 pm Tenebrae - The name of this service literally means "shadows." It is sung almost entirely to Renaissance polyphony while candles are gradually extinguished. A loud sound towards the end symbolizes the earthquake when Jesus finally gave up the ghost. This is one of the more experiential services in Holy Week. Much like choral evensong, you can either pray silently to the music or simply let the whole event wash over you.
