Tenebrae, the service of shadows, is characterized by three ‘Nocturns’, each containing a reading relating to Christ’s Passion and a short hymn. The most significant feature of this service is the gradual extinguishing of the altar candles until only one remains (the Easter candle). The Easter candle is processed out at the end of the service, symbolizing Christ’s death.
