Bach, Passion selon saint matthieu

Its complex musical architecture, combining emotional depth and technical innovation, invites the listener to a total immersion in the Gospel story. The exceptional cast of voices, both solo and choral, underlines the richness of the textures and the multiplicity of human emotions, from the intense pain of the crucifixion to the hope of redemption.
This work is enriched by an interpretive approach based on meticulous research of historical sources. By revisiting the performance practices of the 17th and 18th centuries, this new perspective could challenge our listening habits and lead us to rediscover nuances and motifs often overlooked in more traditional versions. The St Matthew Passion is not just a musical narrative; it is a powerful spiritual and emotional experience that continues to touch hearts and minds, defying time and always bringing a surge of profound reflection back into our contemporary lives.
