𝑷𝒂𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑶𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒊𝒐 - 𝑫𝒂𝒚𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝑬𝒂𝒓𝒍𝒚 𝑴𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒄, 𝑹𝒆𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒔𝒃𝒖𝒓𝒈
A new oratorio by Johann Sebastian Bach with 𝑨𝒍𝒆𝒙𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝑮𝒓𝒚𝒄𝒉𝒕𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒌
Playing date & venue
Sat 23.5.26
20:00 Trinity Church, Regensburg
The ultimate dream of Bach scholars, performers, and admirers? That Johann Sebastian Bach’s already vast catalogue of more than a thousand works might still grow with a few additional masterpieces! Such opportunities are rare, but every now and then a true gem is unearthed. Thus, Bach researcher, keyboard specialist, and conductor 𝑨𝒍𝒆𝒙𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝑮𝒓𝒚𝒄𝒉𝒕𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒌 succeeded in completing an unfinished Passion oratorio, turning it into a stage-ready jewel.
The work, composed for Good Friday 1725, has survived only in fragments through other compositions, while Picander’s text has also been preserved: free and evocative poetry that highlights the personal suffering of Jesus, thereby following a striking trend of the Bach era.
