  Tenebrae (service) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about a religious service, for other meanings see tenebrae.
The Tenebrae (Latin for darkness) is a religious service celebrated by high church elements of Western Christianity, including Anglicanism, the Lutheran Church, the United Methodist Church, the Presbyterian Church (USA) and traditionally the Roman Catholic Church.
The rites associated with Tenebrae may be derived from customs that are connected to the Jewish fast day of Tisha B'Av (the Ninth Day of Av.) On this day, the book of Lamentations is read, the synagogue is darkened and decorative elements are removed.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Tenebrae Hearse
Likewise in the case of the Tenebrae hearse, the term was employed because the prickets were supposed to resemble the teeth of a harrow.
The triangular candlestick for the Tenebrae dates back at least as far as the seventh century, being mentioned in an ordo of that period published by Mabillon.
At the present day, the Tenebrae hearse is made to bear fifteen candles, all of which, according to the "Caeremoniale Episcoporum" (II, xxii, 4), should be of unbleached wax, though in some churches a white candle is used on the apex of the triangle.

But in Tenebrae's performance at St Paul's cathedral, the 90-minute piece was a radiant meditation, a revelation of the subtlety of Rachmaninov's music.
Tenebrae found a spatial metaphor for this uncanny musical atmosphere as they processed through the cathedral during the opening numbers.
The 15 settings are nearly always slow and mostly in minor keys, but Tenebrae created a startling emotional range in their interpretation.

 Amazon.co.uk: Tenebrae [1983]: DVD: Anthony Franciosa,John Saxon,Dario Argento,Daria Nicolodi,Giuliano Gemma,John ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
So, Tenebrae is a thriller about a writer of thrillers who, whilst on a promotional tour in Italy for his new book (...also called Tenebrae), finds himself the focus of a deranged serial killer, who is offing his victims according to the grisly murders found in the very same author's work.
What makes Tenebrae a little more interesting however, is that aforementioned streak of self-reflection and a major twist on perspective that easily rivals the great revelation towards the end of Deep Red, with Argento once again playing with the notions of subjective memory, perspective, and the idea of sight and sightlessness.
The style or Tenebrae is less over-the-top than some of his other films, particularly Suspiria and Deep Red, with the director here going for something that's rooted in a more obvious reality, which I suppose gives a more believable streak to the work of a director so rooted in visual and thematic abstraction.

Tenebrae is an excellent add-on for an already excellent game.

 Hollywood Gothique: Tenebre (1982) Review
Although both films are set in Rome, TENEBRAE has not a single shot of a historical monument: the horrors here do not hide in the shadows of decaying mansions; they stride boldly in the daylight.
TENEBRAE is part of a long tradition of “giallo” thrillers in Italy.
To a large extent, TENEBRAE is an ironic joke on this criticism; despite the title’s literal meaning (“darkness”), the film has few shadows, takes place largely in daylight, and features brightly lit modern architecture even when the setting is night.

 The Office of Tenebrae at St. George's Episcopal Church Roseburg, Oregon   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The name Tenebrae (the Latin word for “darkness” or “shadows”) has for centuries been applied to the ancient monastic night and early morning services (Matins and Lauds) of the last three days of Holy Week, which in medieval times came to be celebrated on the preceding evenings.
Apart from the chant of the Lamentations (in which each verse is introduced by a letter of the Hebrew alphabet), the most conspicuous feature of the service is the gradual extinguishing of candles and other lights in the church until only a single candle, considered a symbol of our Lord, remains.
At the very end, a loud noise is made, symbolizing the earthquake at the time of the resurrection (Matthew 28:2), the hidden candle is restored to its place, and by its light all depart in silence.

The French trio that is Lamia Tenebrae count Type O Negative, Rob Zombie, and Coal Chamber among their influences but I can make only slight comparisons to Type O's song writing style and Rob Zombie's "horror movie" atmospheres.
Lamia Tenebrae instead has more in common with the Dark Wave bands of the late '80s and early '90s than the Gothic metal of today.

 Tenebrae - Worship service of darkness or shadows
The service of worship tonight is taken from an early Christian service called Tenebrae.
The name Tenebrae is the Latin word for "darkness" or "shadows." Tonight we will experience only a small portion of Christ’s pain and suffering the day of His crucifixion.
One of the most conspicuous features of the service is the gradual extinguishing of candles until only a single candle, considered a symbol of our Lord, remains.

I happen to think "Tenebrae" may well be the best Argento film I have seen, even better than his first wave of gialli.
In "Tenebrae" you still have all the necessary attributes of the genre - pretty girls being murdered, killer in fl gloves, a sympathetic detective investigating a case, but the film stands out among all others of this kind.
"Tenebrae" may be violent but the violence itself is no more shocking then the numerous slasher films released from Hollywood throughout the decade so it's a mystery to me as to why this film was given this kind of treatment.

 How to Conduct a Tenebrae Service
A Tenebrae is a special service for Holy Week, that can be conducted on Wednesday in Holy Week, Maundy Thursday, or Good Friday.
If the Tenebrae is on Friday, you might want to slam a door or make some other loud noise during the darkess to represent the stone being rolled to seal the grave.
It is traditional for people to leave the church and go home without speaking to each other, but if this is the first time you’ve had a Tenebrae, that can be a bit harsh.

With Tenebrae, Argento once again proves himself to be a master of suspense.
Another slight disappointment in Tenebrae (although this may be very personal) is that John Saxon is dreadfully underused.
But, for the gorehounds among us, Tenebrae easily is one of Argento's sickest, most violent films.

Bio: The beginning of Italians MOTUS TENEBRAE can be traced back to July 2002, when Andreas Cox (bass, vocals), and Mauricio Tremolo (drums) joined forces as KILLING THRASH-(band active from year 1989)- a power heavy/death metal ensemble with dark metal influences.
Over the next months, MOTUS TENEBRAE worked diligently on new material that eventually found its way to their first demo recorded in Syncropain studio on 27 Jan 2003, exactly one week of their live debut.
It soon became clear that the members of MOTUS TENEBRAE had conquered their fans, producing an atmospheric, melodic, and powerful type of heavy/goth-dark metal with a flair all its own.

 Amazon.com: Tenebrae: Music: Carlo Gesualdo   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Ghastly, but gripping--and, oddly enough, his harmonies, dissonances, upsetting chromatic passages, and general complexity can also be seen as "ghastly but gripping." Gesualdo was wealthy enough that he never had to depend on a patron; he could therefore write whatever he pleased, in whatever, far-out (to this day), experimental style he chose.
His Tenebrae Responsoria are particularly thorny--they're a part of the religious service in which the church's candles are extinguished one at a time until the congregation is sitting in darkness--and Gesualdo's music is incredibly deep and troubling.
However, normally the Tenebrae Responosories, as their name indicates, would be sung as reponses to lectios, which are simple, monophonic recitations, providing nice contrast to the intricate responses, as well as suitable and hypnotic relaxation between them.

Shortly after American mystery-thriller novelist Peter Neal arrives in Rome to promote his new book (the Tenebrae of the title) an attractive young woman is murdered by a razor-wielding maniac who stuffs pages of Neal's latest novel into the mouth of his victim before slashing her throat.
Speaking about Tenebrae Argento said it was his intention to put on film a gory rollercoasterfull of fast and furious murders.
As well as being a superbly orchestrated and inventive suspense thriller, Tenebrae is a shockingly horrific orgy of graphic violence, set to a pounding score by Argento regulars Goblin and beautifully shot by Suspiria cinematographer Lucio Tovoli.

 Tavener: Mother And Child; Et Al / Nigel Short, Tenebrae | ArkivMusic
The professional vocal ensemble Tenebrae (whose concerts feature candlelight and choreography) is completely in command of these often difficult scores, and the engineering is ideal, capturing the fullness of the space (Temple Church, London) without sacrificing detail or balance--especially impressive in the pieces with choir and organ.
Richard Rodney Bennett adds a beautiful, mostly serene setting of a John Donne meditation whose harmonically rich choral texture is broken by a lovely, brief tenor solo at its center and near the end.
Tavener's Mother and child, commissioned by Tenebrae in 2003, sits in the middle of the program--and it's the only point of boredom.
