Cross of Jesus: Six Preludes for Lent

Robert J. Powell has composed a well-crafted and accessible collection for Lent. This book offers settings that are appropriate to the season, such as Go to Dark Gethsemane; Jesus, I Will Ponder Now and Cross of Jesus, Cross of Sorrow. Each setting offers a series of key and tempo changes. The final setting, Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me, offers a joyful, majestic ending to an otherwise somber piece.
