St John Passion depicts Jesus' trial, crucifixion and death according to the Gospel of St. John. With soloists, choir and Willoughby Symphony Orchestra, the text and music powerfully convey the Passion's sorrow, grief and triumph. It is one of the most emotional Baroque works, dramatic and fast-paced, a masterpiece: not to be missed.
