¡J.S.Bach: St Matthew Passion
¡Classical V.A.
Description
[Machine Translation] Bach's (1685-1750) masterpiece "Matthew Passion" was premiered on April 11, 1727, at St. Thomas Church in Leipzig. Richard Eger used the score of the 1727 premiere version for this performance (the autograph score has not survived). Although the score is generally performed in the revised edition of 1936, Eger selected this first performance version because he believed that "many insights and persuasiveness have been lost in later editions, such as the revised manuscript. The story of the Passion, woven together by a seemingly unparalleled array of soloists, chorus, and the lustrous sounds of the Academy of Ancient Music, appears soft at first glance, but is in fact profound and austere, with the climax vividly revealing the sinfulness of mankind. The climax of the story is a vivid depiction of the sinfulness of mankind. Matthew" is a gift to all.
