Unbestreitbar ist Johann-Sebastians Bachs Johannespassion evangelisch-lutherische geistliche Musik. Es ist erstaunlich, in welcher Weise die Interpreten des vermutlich weit überwiegend im römisch-katholischen Milieu beheimateten Knabenchors (vermutlich die Wiener Sängerknaben) hier mitgehen.

@claudedreyfus Really? I had the information that woman never could sing in German Lutheran Churches in time of Bach. I will try to do a better research about that.

@codonauta : Bach was a protestant. In the German Lutheran church, there was no iinterdiction for women to perform sacred music whatsoever. Wonderful parts of Bach and others' sacred songs were written to be performed by women : listen to the heavenly "Ich folge Dir gleichfalls" or "von den Stricken meiner Sünden" in St John's Passion, or to the incredible duett "alles, was von geboren..." in BWV 80...

Gosh I love that conductor.

In the time of Bach, did he perform this Passion with kids too? No woman? I would like to know that. There was the issue that woman could´t perform sacral music, but sometimes that happens - so, this issue is a bit nebulous.
Tha choral parts are ok with kids, but the arias - not very good.

Truly Magnificent

@Freizeitspieler: You were wonderful in this performancel!!! I have the same feeling when I sing Bach --- so much emotion and passion! This is my favorate version of Johannnes - Passion --- so many talents together! I can't help thinking Bach is the gift from God, so are you and choir and Harnoncout! Thank you, thank you all!

That little boy is rocking so hard one gets the impression he would rather just rip Christ's cloak into equal parts.

Who can ever say Bach never had 'rythm'! Harnancourt continually extracts true magic from every choir and orchestra he conducts. Just look how those kids hang on his every gesture! Not since Sir Malcolm Sargent has there been a greater choral conductor...

@Freizeitspieler :So its you! Thank you for your emotionell singing. Its joyful to see a singer so young be so "into" the music.



Harnoncourt SANTO SUBITO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
