I began crying halfway through listening to this aria right after I stumbled upon it just a few minutes ago. I'm no expert, but I use my common sense in judging things, which means very few things ever get my 100% approval. But this woman hit the sweet spot of forcefulness, timber, energy and just utterly breathtaking emotion. With the violin echoing her sentiments, it was the perfect storm of melancholy that hit me from nowhere. The best aria I have ever heard, and I've heard my share.

Magdalena Kozena's voice is so perfect for this, isn't it? Her voice has this kind of innocence and purity that (I think, I'm a just a student) Matthaus Passion is all about. It's just so ineffibly beautiful! Wonderstruck here. :)

@pdruiz2005 I've heard this aria sung by many others before but as I was watching her performance of it with the Berlin phil it really stirred something in me. So heartfelt.

Dostoevsky said that beauty will save the world. Not productivity, not growth, not even love. Beauty! And this is beauty at its purest.

While Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 (1st movement) has elements of jazz to me, with this aria, one can be sad and desperate, yet gather enough dignity to dance the tango. Bach was so much ahead of his time. Such was his genius!

Wow! Her first strains were so beautiful! Tears in my eyes.

Smiluj se, Bože můj,
nad mými slzami!
Patři, srdce a oči
hořce pláčí před Tebou.
Smiluj se, Bože můj.

cuando el ser humano se compenetre de lo que expresa la musica y el texto de esta antigua composicion de Bach..habra comprendido cuanto tiempo ha desperdiciado en conflictos,polemicas y guerras absurdas...

Magdalena added so much warmth and genuine emotion in his voice, this is truly one of the best interpretation of this masterpiece. I still can not stop crying ...
Esta es la música que salvará el espíritu humano. Es el alimento que necesita el ser humano hoy para volver al mundo de donde viene. Magdalena la interpreta con mucha fineza. Muchas gracias.
