Bach: St John Passion

Kölner Kammerchor;
Collegium Cartusianum;
Neumann, Peter

MDG 102 2351-6

Bach revised his St. John Passion time and again - indeed making it one of his most enigmatic and fascinating compositions. On the 300th anniversary of its world premiere, MDG is reissuing the highly acclaimed recording for the first time in full three-dimensional sound on Super Audio CD for the PREZIOSA series.

Under the direction of Peter Neumann, the Cologne Chamber Choir and Collegium Cartusianum are joined by top-class soloists, with a magnificent Markus Brutscher as the Evangelist, as well as Ruth Holton, Bogna Bartosz, Thomas Laske and Tom Sol, who perform their demanding roles with great poignancy.

The fantastic acoustics of the Bendorf-Sayn Abbey can be experienced with striking naturalness in MDG’s legendary 2+2+2 audiophile recording, in addition to the spatial layout with the historic Stumm organ at the top of the gallery and singers and instrumentalists positioned below.
