Victoria wrote his 18 Responsories to be performed in three sets, according to Church custom, during the services of Holy Week. The music would not have been heard straight through as we have it on this recording, but its presentation in this form allows us to fully appreciate its unified construction and emotional impact. Except for some overexuberant singing from the tenors in the "Tenebrae factae sunt" section and occasional loss of blend in the trebles, this is a delightful, atmospheric recording. It sets the proper mood for Victoria's thoughtful, reverent, and moving accompaniment to these all-important observances in the liturgy of the Christian Church. --David Vernier ## Images ![Victoria: Responsories for Tenebrae - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41Y6-q1kd3L.jpg) ![Victoria: Responsories for Tenebrae - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51OFYzxztuL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ exalted praise *by P***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2009* When novelist Vonnegut, who happenened to be an atheist, suggested that some music possibly has the power to change the mind of an atheist concerning the existence of a supernatural being, then I suggest that he may have been refering to the compositions of Victoria. The fact is that the composer was a darling of powerful men in the Catholic church during a time we know as the Renaissance. He must have been completely aware of his circumstances given his success in pleasing authorities and suggesting the absolute divine by means of the human voice. I can find very little wrong with this particular recording. The direction and performance are truly superb. I question one aspect of performance and recording, however. The SA parts of the SATB seem a little thin and weak. But that may only be because I prefer women's voices to boys. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ More angelic sounds . . . *by D***A on Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2009* Angelic sounds that help to keep the grind of the daily pace at peace. Eighty percent of my day is writing or reading loc so I need something that will allow me intense concentration without distraction . . . this is beautiful for that . . . and when a function doesn't run as expected I am able to deal with it from a peaceful perspective. PTL ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exquisite *by P***A on Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2013* There is no one like Victoria, this album is a gem and everything he has done is worthy of any collection. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/7139725-victoria-responsories-for-tenebrae](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/7139725-victoria-responsories-for-tenebrae) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
