33 A.D.
"Who is this man?" asked Jesus' disciples when he calmed the storm that was threatening to sink their boat. The question continued to be posed throughout the Gospel account, and continues to be asked today. In this collection of 16 songs, I've given voice and music to some of those who became entwined in the story of Jesus' life, death and resurrection some 2000 years ago. As each responds to their encounter with Jesus we hear in their songs perhaps an echo of our own response to the question, "Who is this man?" Some would betray him, some reject him, some ignore him and some embrace him. The songs are arranged as the story unfolds, in roughly chronological order, as a musical. The question posed at the beginning is answered by Thomas at the end in a confident declaration after his doubting heart encounters the resurrected Jesus.
