| Bach's St Matthew Passion | ||||||||
| Bach's epic setting of Christ's Passion, first heard on Good Friday in 1727, was intended to “bring us into a mental state of introspection and self-examination,” and it fulfills its purpose like no other work in the history of music. The Gospel narrative, as translated by Martin Luther, is presented by tenor William Watson as the Evangelist with bass Stephen Morscheck as Jesus. Solo arias, which conclude each scene with opportunities for reflection and meditation, are sung by soprano Sherezade Panthaki, countertenor Jay Carter, tenor Lawrence Jones, and bass Curtis Streetman. |
