A fantastic and very different approach to this dramatic biblical story, with Bach's music at the centre of the experience. I love it when something like this can be reimagined in such a creative way.

[@lulublasz]

A very diferent rendition of this Passion! Disturbing and, at same time, emotional experience.

[@eveningair]

Thanks for your opinion.
It’s really fantastic by Simon Rattle and Peter Sellars

[@JPS-hd8qz]

At the end during the long pauze I realised that I had discovered something very new - the emotional experience left me exausted, but also full of joy: as if I just rediscovered Bach...

[@eveningair]

I’m really think so too.
Bach is Bach.
Thanks

I've seen three live performances and the half a minute of silence after the end is something that's part of the experience; the audience is emotionally crushed.

The Best of the best !!!

Thanks

[@renatomorais2023]

Obrigado por postar. Eu tinha curiosidade de ver isso.

[@sypyo64]

Different and interesting.
After all, it is the "Passion," not Glory.

[@eveningair]

I’m really empathy with your “Passion “

[@ohmy5650]

Superbe, tout. Que dire sinon que tous les chanteurs - pas que les solistes, le choeur entier aussi - n'ont pas de partition ! Profonde connaissance de l'oeuvre donc, je suis ému.
Who is the tenor around 51minutes? Amazing, the other soloists too.

[@eveningair]

Maybe he is “Topi Lehtipuu”

[@thesceptic1018]

Well, it is a musical drama

[@eveningair]

I’m agree with your opinion.
It’s real musical drama.

[@musictemporis]

Bach hat alles in seiner Musik zum Ausdruck gebracht. Die inszenierte Schauspielerei ist überflüssig und stört nur.

[@renatomorais2023]

I agree. If Bach liked opera, he would have written one.

[@shadbolt4596]

​@@renatomorais2023..and fwiw I don't think opera likes Bach. The medium requires a particular melodic and dramatic flair. Bach's forte lies elsewhere.

[@lulublasz]

Mr Rattle is not half crazy. Is crazy end half =)

[@PooyaRadbon]

No thanks! I still prefer Harnoncourt's 2000 interpretation...and of course many more but not this.

[@waxwaine]

A presumptuous parody of the enormous Bach´s Mattheus Passion . Why the homosexual kiss! Why?! Disgusting
