The Easter Triduum is the set of celebrations that concluded the Catholic Holy Week, which is the memorial of the passion, death and resurrection of Christ. According to the Roman Rite, the main celebrations are:

evening Mass on Holy Thursday;
afternoon liturgical action, Good Friday, Easter Vigil
on the night of Holy Saturday
celebration of Easter, the day of Sunday.

The Easter Triduum, according to the Roman Rite, begins with the Vespers of Holy Thursday and concludes with Vespers of Easter Day.
It is the only celebration of the Paschal Mystery of Christ, broken in three days of Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday, the Vespers of Holy Thursday can be considered the First Vespers of this Feast.

The Catholic Church ardently desires that the faithful, if they can, to the principal celebrations of the Easter Triduum, which is the evening Mass, Lord's Supper on Holy Thursday, the liturgical action to church on Good Friday, Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday, Mass of Easter Sunday, the celebrations are the deepest core of the liturgy of the Church, and therefore are more important than other devotions that also accompany the liturgy in these days, as the processions and the Via Crucis. However on 1 general precept of the Church ("Attend Mass on Sundays and other holy days and to refrain from the occupations of work," Catechism of the Catholic Church No. 2042) requires only the participation in the Mass of Easter Sunday or, alternatively, the Easter Vigil (Full) on Holy Saturday.

mentioned characteristic of the celebrations is that they are organized as a single liturgy, because the Mass of the Lord's Supper does not end with ite missa est, but in silence, action Friday liturgy does not begin with the usual greeting and Sign of the Cross and also ends without greeting, in silence, finally, the solemn vigil begins in silence and finally ends with the final farewell. The Easter Triduum is therefore one solemn, the most important of all the Catholic liturgical year, from the Gloria of the Mass on Thursday in one of Sleep bells should be on liturgical silence; ancient musical instruments were also shut on Friday and Holy Saturday until the Easter Vigil, the better to express the sense of penance in recent days, which is why many works of ancient authors for Good Friday were written for single chorus. Today, however, allowed the use of musical instruments during the celebrations of these days, even if only to support the singing.

In the days of the Easter Triduum, the Catholic Church calls the faithful to meet the 2nd and 3rd overall precept of the Church ("Confess your sins at least once a year" and "receive the sacrament of the Eucharist at least Easter, after confession sacramental CCC No. 2042), these precepts would "ensure a minimum the reception of the Body and Blood of Christ in connection with the Paschal feasts, the origin and center of Christian worship" (CCC No. 2042). However, the precept of receiving the Eucharist at least at Easter can be fulfilled for a just cause, in another day of the Easter season (ie, between the Easter Vigil and Pentecost), always sacramental confession (Code of Canon Law, canon 920 ).

Finally Friday is applied to all the faithful with more than 14 years of abstinence from meat, and the faithful from 18 to 60 years, the church fasted, in accordance with the general precept of the 4th Church ("In the days established by the Church refrain from eating meat and fasting states," CCC No. 2043), the Catholic Church considers worthy of praise even extend to the church on Holy Saturday fasting and abstinence from meat, until the Easter Vigil but does not make it an obligation for the faithful.
