Bach - St. John Passion BWV 245 (Masaaki Suzuki, 2000) - 2/12

[@KayHarpaGone]

oui, pardon, enregistré en 2000 - on a pu voir toute la Passion selon Saint Jean en direct du Japon sur Mezzo cette année-là - c'était merveilleux.

I forgot how much I love Bach. Now I remember!

[@rikisibainnu]

I cannot describe my joy when i listen to 'Von den Stricken meiner Sünden' Aria .

Ausgezeichnet. Besser als allesbisher. Bin 86 Jahre

@PrecicyJax you must remember that the director Masaaki was based on the final version of this work Bach left, around the year 1749. Mr. Masaaki is a specialist in the music of Bach, certainly on the score ends in minor chord.

Remarkable.

"Jesum! Jesum! Jesum von Nazareth! Jesum von Nazareth!" at 1:08, bloody great.

[@Tilumbus]

I like the conductor plays the harpsichord himself.

[@kurisu_rpg]

Actually I think Suzuki may be using the earlier version in this performance. All my other recordings of this piece (including Suzuki's CD version) end in a major chord and the chorale in this video is noticeably less chromatically complex.

Amen

Καταπληκτικος

[@papagen00]

i prefer mezzo-sopranos to countertenors. 'authenticity' be damned.

[@phunse1]

I dont like the sound of the counter tenor.
