Description "St. John Passion" by Bach sung in German. In its rich and inventive orchestral writing, its vivid word painting and dramatic choral passages, this Passion is Bach at his most expressive and theatrical, emphasising the human dimensions of the story, the cruelty of the crowd and the dilemma of Pilate. This is one unassailable masterwork of the Baroque era and a moving affirmation of the spirit of Easter.
