Can people hear Peter crying his heart out?- even the violin is sobbing. Thank you for uploading the whole Passion.

'Erbarme dich' is the most moving music ever composed. Before I knew this, I thought that 'One fine day' by Puccini was the most moving aria. How wrong I was. 'Erbarme dich' is simply sublime.I can listen to this aria every single day of my life for the rest of my life.

Aria - Alto
Erbarme dich,
Mein Gott, um meiner Zähren willen!
Schaue hier,
Herz und Auge weint vor dir
Bitterlich

Who is the violinist?

don't know if there's a God out there in the heavens or not, but i'm sure about one thing: Bach himself was God-ly! just consider the "creation" of all these beautiful masterpieces in music and you'll probably agree with me.

A tribe contemplating faith and religion
A crowd speculating belief and suspicion
All of a sudden will sneak out a summon,
"O' ignorant, neither that nor this is the direction!"

C'est genial. C'est parfait!

Stunning versions - such beauty



Even though I am an atheïst, I must agree with you on that Erbarme dich, mein Gott is (one of the) best and stunning pieces of music ever written.
Perhaps when I die, stand before before the gates of heaven and it truns out God DOES exist I might sing this. I'm shure he'll let me in then ;)
