Bach's sensational "last-hand version" of the St John Passion from 1749 with an introduction to the work The music of Bach's St John Passion, written immediately after his appointment as Thomaskantor of Leipzig for Holy Week in 1724, is still alive, fresh and a true Baroque delight almost three hundred years later. The two main choruses, 'Herr, unser Herrscher' and 'Ruht wohl, ihr heiligen Gebeine', form the beginning and climax of a vast orchestral-vocal composition in which Bach demonstrates his supreme mastery. Heartfelt, contemplative chorales are interwoven with the events of the Passion, just as captivating arias comment on the biblical texts of the Gospel of John. Baroque musical splendour is always at the forefront of the festive Passion oratorio. What makes the live recording published here of the concert performance on 7 March 2015 in the Herkulessaal of the Munich Residence exceptional are the untapped voices of the singers, who are as young as they are outstanding, the "crystal-clear sound" that is repeatedly praised in the highest terms, and the "tremendous plasticity" of the Bavarian Radio Choir under Peter Dijkstra and, of course, the renowned original sound ensemble Concerto Köln.

The St John Passion BWV 245 by the leading Bach exegete Johann Sebastian Bach is undoubtedly one of the finest settings of the Passion of Jesus in the history of music. For his first Passion as the new Thomaskantor of Leipzig in 1724, Bach made use of all musical and compositional possibilities, so that the orchestra included unusual instruments such as the oboe da caccia, two violas d'amore and the lute. Philippe Herreweghe, one of today's leading Bach exegetes, once again offers us a musically accomplished and finely illuminated Bach on his latest recording, matured by decades of experience, who can appeal directly to connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike. A superbly assembled ensemble of soloists, including Maxilimilian Schmitt (Evangelista), Krešimir Stražanac (Jesus), Dorothee Mields and Damien Guillon, as well as the proven forces of Collegium Vocale Gent, make this recording undoubtedly a highlight of the work's extensive discography that should not be overlooked.

Johann Sebastian Bach: Johannes-passion Bwv 245 versie op 2CD in standaard editie. Deze specifieke uitgave werd uitgebracht in Europa bij uitgeverij Carus op 28. februari 2020.

Johann Sebastian Bach's exemplary late version of the St John Passion BWV 245 is undoubtedly one of the finest settings of the Passion of Jesus Christ in the history of music. For his first Passion as Thomaskantor of Leipzig, the composer made use of all musical possibilities, so that the orchestra includes unusual instruments such as the oboe da caccia, two violas d'amore and the lute. However, unlike the St Matthew Passion BWV 244, there is no definitive version of the St John Passion, as it underwent several major changes during Bach's lifetime, as a result of which various versions of the work can be reconstructed. The traditional version of the partly autograph score is still the most commonly performed and recorded, but a very interesting alternative can be found in the most recent version from 1749. In this version, recorded here, Bach returned to the original version in many details, but ordered changes in the instrumentation, for example: he removed the lute, which was probably no longer available, and replaced the two violas d'amore with muted violins. A contrapuntal 'bassono grosso' was added. However, there are also significant textual changes in the arias. In addition, it is clear that the role singers were not meant to sing along with the choruses and chorales. It is clear, therefore, that in his last attested performance of the St John Passion, the elder Bach was experimenting with a performance practice much closer to that of the 19th century than is generally assumed today. Hans-Christoph Rademann, together with Gaechinger Cantorey, here presents an exemplary recording of this late version, based on a carefully prepared new critical edition published by CARUS. With an outstanding ensemble of soloists, this recording is a must for any lover of Bach's music!
