The English Concert, Harry Bicket and a small consort of singers recreate Dietrich Buxtehude's Membra Jesu Nostri, the seven sections of which address different parts of Christ’s crucified body.

This masterwork of Lutheran oratorio, the title of which translates as ‘the limbs of our Jesus’, is prefaced by Johann Christoph Bach’s lachrymose ‘Ach, dass ich Wassers gnug hätte’, an inestimably moving solo cantata that evokes the compassion of Easter through its lament, ‘Oh, that I had enough tears in my head to bewail my sins’.
