“The blood of our brothers and sisters is a testimony which cries out to be heard […] The martyrs belong to all Christians”. Speaking in Spanish to a delegation from the Church of Scotland on 16 February 2015, Pope Francis asked to go forward with the ecumenism to address the attacks against Christianity.
The translation of his words into the flute comments on the stubborn of a Gregorian Easter Hallelujah to resist the harsh attacks of the ensemble, cyclically triggered by the cello transcription of the voice of an ISIS terrorist.
