Maximilian Steinberg based every movement of his Passion Week on pre-existing chants, except for this one, for which he composed his own, chant-like melody. As in every movement of his monumental work, composed in the early 1920s, a great mystery is musically expressed: the last-minute promise of paradise made by Christ on the cross to the thief on his right hand. (The full score of Steinberg’s Passion Week is available from Musica Russica, cat. No. St-PW.)
