Besides Christmas, Holy Week holds the most iconic and beautiful music in our Catholic culture. In our Spotify playlist below, you’ll find music for every taste in these playlists — traditional and modern hymns, praise and worship, Gregorian chant and Latin polyphony, even Eastern Catholic and a little bit of gospel.
Each song was selected to help draw you into the mysteries of the Church’s liturgies: on Holy Thursday, the Eucharist and the Agony in the Garden; on Good Friday, the Passion and our salvation through the Cross; on Easter Sunday, it’s all about the joy of the Resurrection (with all those alleluias we’ve been missing).
