Easter Triduum: Chór Juranda - Wisi na krzyżu (He's Hanging On The Cross), 1935

Chór Juranda - Wisi na krzyżu (He's Hanging On The Cross), Syrena-Electro 1935

NOTE: Today is the night of the Last Super and the Easter Triduum has its beginning.
I celebrate these great Catholic days with my uploading of the old Polish hymn for the Lent: Wisi na krzyżu (He's Hanging On The Cross). Polish Lent songs collection is very old and rich, it contains the monuments of the popular anonymous creativity as well as the compositions of the renowned artists: musicians as well as poets (e.g. bard of the Polish Renaissance, Jan Kochanowski).
What's for me peculiar about this rendition, is Chór Juranda (The Jurand's Choir) appearing on the record's label as this song's performer, for we are used to see the name of that popular Polish revelers' band from the 1930s in a quite different repertoire (foxtrotts, tangoes...). It proves, how our times are different from the world of our parents or grandparents. I simply cannot imagine any of Polish or West European "celebrities" presenting themselves in such serious religious repertoire, on any of the main pop-culture arenas of today.
