O Sacred Head, Now Wounded (Tune: Passion Chorale by Hans Leo Hassler), arranged for piano and string quartet, offers a moving instrumental meditation suitable for Easter, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, funerals, and other sacred or reflective services.

This 3:38 minute neo-classical arrangement features tranquil harmonies, a gentle reflective tone, and intimate voicings that invite contemplation. The interplay between piano and strings creates a warm and reverent atmosphere, enhancing worship services with a sense of quiet devotion and musical stillness.

Accessible for both performers and congregations, this thoughtful setting was originally commissioned by Parkside Church (Alistair Begg) for a Holy Week service.
