John Butt leads the Dunedin Consort in a performance of Johann Sebastian Bach's sacred oratorio St John Passion. Featuring tenor Nicholas Mulroy as the Evangelist, bass Matthew Brook as Jesus, soprano Sophie Bevan, countertenor Tim Mead, tenor Andrew Tortise, and bass-baritone Konstantin Wolff as soloists. In addition to the ensemble performing on period instruments, further elements of both authenticity and intimacy were added by inserting other music used in the Leipzig Good Friday service that Bach himself would have heard and by inviting the audience to sing the responsory portions of the chorales that bookend the Passion. Recorded live at the Royal Albert Hall on August 20th 2017 as Prom 49.

Our son was named Johannes when he was born on 31st December 2017, compelled by this performance like a sign. At Easter of 2020 I left him and his brother and his mother, driven away. I miss him.

@tobiasstudtheol 6 лет назад

They use a "Bärenreiter Urtext" Vocal score. Bärenreiter is a good old publisher for musical notes. Urtext in german means that it is a version without any additions by the publisher and most likely based on an autograph, in this case by Bach. They use the Traditional Version (1739/1749).

And the Bärenreiter score contains both the material of the first version of 1724 and the second version of 1725 which is the less performed one.

@hussainalmuhanna3686 5 лет назад

Bach music is great Bach's music speaks of a religiously sensitive feeling. Bach has served the Protestant Christian doctrine with every word of his music. I believe that Bach, through his religion and music, which is called in the Protestant doctrine, placed Jesus and his supporters in his eyes and served them with music. Bach was an organist in the synagogue and his music was preceded by music Creation Bach's organ was very important as it played its religious music Johann Sebastian Bach is considered one of the most brilliant musicians in the field of Christian doctrine, putting his first artistic touches on music and its adaptations, which is considered one of the finest and most brilliant music of the Baroque era, which lasted 150 years.

A sing along Saint John’s Passion (J.S. Bach) how delightful, this is a good idea. The Evangelist Tenor is very expressive and dramatic. J.S. Bach was truly an Evangelical Lutheran with his arias that are devotionals from the biblical text. The English translation could be better.

Alex Woodley well looking at the text, it could be possible that he’s german and understands it. Or maybe that’s just an involuntary facial expression.. that doesn’t need to mean a show of disgust or anything

@paulcousineau7063 6 лет назад

Seems like some were listening to the text. Others in the orchestra seem to also have appropriate reactions. Music from the heart is best. Carry on !

@dunedinconsort 5 лет назад

Nicholas Mulroy is the kind of singer that really gets involved with the text and what everyone around him is performing. At that point in the oratorio, he has just delivered one of the more dramatic events in the piece, the taking of Jesus. The text that Konstantin sings straight after is incredibly poignant. He is just responding to the music and what Konstantin was singing about...

@kan-hsuehchiang3819 2 года назад

I thought that John Butt is a believer of OVPP theory. Why having such a big choir to perform John's passion?

@hollowchatter7429 2 года назад

1. John Butt's recordings of the St. Matthew Passion and B minor Mass use OVPP, but the St. John Passion’s surviving Bach-era performing material indicates at least two voices per part. 2. Small ensembles are generally more difficult to hear in the large acoustics of the Royal Albert Hall which might have also influenced Butt's choice for a larger choir here.

@kan-hsuehchiang3819 2 года назад

@@hollowchatter7429 Thank you so much for your reply and illustration. S.Kuijken told me the arrangement of John Passion was 2 singers per part because it was been used in Good Friday and need more tension in the ritual. However, i still don't think using choir is necessary when performing in large concert hall. I joined Kuijken's Matthew Passion in Concertgebouw with the OVPP arrangement. The acoustic effect was just terrific!

@GordonStainforth 5 лет назад

Nicholas Mulroy is superb, and seems to be one of the only performers here who understands fully the drama of the piece. Just about everyone else is a bit limp, more or less. It all goes just a bit too slowly ... and then there are those ghastly long gaps/hiatuses between pieces, when Bach really meant the whole thing to go at nearly breakneck speed with just slight 'beats' rather than gaps. This is a typical modern performance that fails to understand fully the intentions of the way it was written. Which was: very intense, dramatic, highly paced and histrionic all the way. IMVHO. One of my fantasies in life would be to conduct, or at least, musically direct this, one of the greatest pieces of music ever written. Almost every recording I've seen doesn't quite reach the highly charged bar set (as I believe) by the composer.

@lakkfatt2321 5 лет назад

Why do they disrupt and disconnect the flow of Bach's music by organ playing and having the audience sing? Strange. This is not what it's meant to be. The Royal Albert Hall is not God's house. The Proms is not a christian event.

@robertjamesseeley2449 5 лет назад

On this day, the Royal Albert Hall WAS God's House, and the PROMS WAS a Christian event. Totally worshipful. Blessings to all. rjs

@hollowchatter7429 5 лет назад

This is 100% how it was meant to be. Bach wrote this music for particular liturgical contexts (which included the congregation singing hymns and declamatory organ preludes) and Butt is being as faithful to those contexts as possible. Whether or not one is a practicing Christian is irrelevant. This is the closest one can get to experiencing Bach as the man himself heard it.

@gertvenghaus3762 5 лет назад

This is exactly how it is meant and how Bach has conceived it, including the singing of the congregation. Has nothing to do with conducting a Christian sermon in the Royal Albert Hall.
