J.S. Bach – St. John Passion, BWV 245
Composer Robert Schumann called the St. John Passion “one of the most profound and perfected works of Bach.” According to conductor and Bach scholar John Eliot Gardiner, “it packs a more powerful dramatic punch than any Passion setting before or since” and “is as bold and complex an amalgam of storytelling and meditation, religion and politics, music and theology as there has ever been.”
