The St John Passion, performed by the Nederlands Bach Society for All of Bach, was the first Passion Bach had written as cantor in Leipzig. The Passion story as told in the Gospel of John is different from that told by the other three evangelists - Matthew, Luke and Mark. John’s version places the emphasis on Christ’s divine origin. Throughout his suffering, this divine origin still plays a role and nowhere is Jesus as human as in the other gospels.
For this performance, we selected a cast of singers under the age of 35. Apart from the leaders, all the orchestra members are also younger than 35. The concert series was preceded by a course of auditions and masterclasses.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on March 11th 2017 at the Grote Kerk, Naarden. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating bit.ly/2uZuMj5.

Any and every time I have watched videos of performances inside churches (such as this one) I am always astounded by the sound. Sometimes there are microphones and other times there seem to be none visible. I believe it is simply the acoustics created by the building, and that when these performances first occurred within them, there were no microphones...this is exactly what it sounded like. Amazing! I hope one day to travel (or live) in Europe, and on my list of things to do is to go to a choral performance or mass (Bach being my favorite composer!) like this one.

I have been a Bach lover for 70 years, finding new treasures (and old ones) on TRvid. This is an exquisite, powerful, moving performance of one of the greatest works by JSB. I loved the singing, the playing, the conducting and especially the marvelously expressive Evangelist who lived every word he sung. I found the last 10 mins moved me to tears (yet again with this marvel of a work).

There is so much to admire about this beautiful performance. Even during the choruses everyone plays and sings with the urgency and the gravity of a soloist. Thank you to everyone involved. To be able to access this any time I want, feels like having a secret door in my small apartment that leads directly into the Sistine chapel.

Esta versión es totalmente electrizante y grandiosa. La verdad es que no importa las veces que se escuchen las pasiones de Bach pues siempre sorprenden los hallazgos armónicos, melódicos, contrapuntísticos, orquestales y dramáticos. En realidad Bach es inagotable y absolutamente maravilloso.

This is the most high-quality piece of art ever recorded, with such great singers, orchestra, and conductor! We also presented St John's Passion in the Cathedral today and it went really great!! I was thinking about the video when I was singing, I don't think I will ever stop listening to this piece of art ever! Big thanks to everyone in this video including the cameramen and editors!

I'm at a loss for words. First 10 minutes in and I feel like the NBS injected life and emotion in such an organic and heartfelt manner to the overture, like I've never heard it before in my life. I'm thoroughly touched. I cannot thank you enough for this precious gift.

vdgg 3 yıl önce

I was going to say, "Yes, my thoughts exactly." And then I noticed you have Tarkovsky as your account icon. So, therefore, we are soul brothers :) I think there's actually something very Tarkovskian in Bach's music (all the moreso the overture here). But, it's probably the other way around. There's no doubt that there's something very Bachian in Tarkovsky, and the overture makes the point.

redbrian3655 4 yıl önce

I knew from the opening chorus that this was going to be a most thoughtful rendition. The recording engineers are tops! The young international cast of soloists is uniformly outstanding and Felix Schwandtke has the most resonant bass voice I have ever heard! I like that the soloists also sing the choruses.

Daniel Mora-Brito Yıl önce

This is an absolutely sublime and exceptional performance that, in my humble view, honors what Bach must have wished to achieve with this unique, exquisite, and beyond-remarkable composition-probably the most incredible piece of religious music ever written. I really have no words to describe how well executed this is: the passion and ‘tender’ precision of the singing, the playing, and the conducting as a single and extremely well-rounded organic unit. I have watched it countless times and has become a standard, along with some of Gardiner’s recordings. Simply impeccable.

It's so amazing and heart warming with how little of routine these young people not only are interpreting but really living this music and its spiritual content. There are so many very unique and never heard nuances, that are felt so truly and deeply without being maniristic. I'm just moved to tears and can do no more than admire this interpretation.

Van Veldhoven is a master at peeling back the layers and dissecting Bach's more titanic works to find the little details that reveal Bach's genius, and his interpretation of this piece is nothing short of outstanding. The ensemble is firing on all cylinders and allows themselves to get out of the way of the work, so that it is glorious music - such sweet music - we hear, and not the performers.

Oscar Gill Yıl önce

Indeed: check out the video in the description where they talk about the piece. Van Veldhoven talks about the passion so... well, passionately, as do the other interviewees. It's a great watch, would definitely recommend it!

Thank you for this mind-blowing interpretation, so carefully woven, so infinitely elaborated, with such skilful mastery of each musician, where the whole is so much more than its parts. I know St John well, having executed it so many times, listend to so many interpretations over the years, but here it comes in so many more facets I’ve never heard before. The level of young musicians nowadays exceeds so far what was common in our time, I can only bow to this generation in full admiration of their mastery and the mastery to bind all this into such a coherent interpretation.

Having sung the work four times myself I am just knocked out by this singing and we are so fortunate to be able to hear NBS at the touch of a switch. Singing in a performance one misses out on the soloists who have their backs to a choral society. I hadn't realised how difficult the solos actually are - and how sublimely sung by these superb singers.

I've been listening to this recording for the past three or four years, and it is not only beautifully performed, but it has truly blessed my life. The music of Bach transcends the centuries, and is for all time.

This is a fantastic Interpretation! Everything is so well balanced! I thought it's a bit slow in the beginning, but I got used to it and now it sounds right to me. Mr. Veldhoven, you did some outstanding work! The recording is transparent and clear, the best I ever heard so far! Thanks to Netherland Bach Society and Mr Veldhoven! You make the world a better place!

This deeply sensitive interpretation of Bach's incredibly poignant music, his experience of reliving the Gospel of John, brings it into the 21st century forcefully. Who could remain indifferent to the message? Each of the musicians enter into the message, joining and thus creating a unity of expression that is so varied - from deep sadness, the anger of the crowd, the climax of pain and the deep peace at the end, with thankfulness expressed ...'the sum of suffering shall be my path to heaven'. Thank you for this precious gift tonight, Good Friday.

He composed this like incoming waves that are interferring each other. Something of what late 20th Composers like Steve Reich are still experimenting with. Absolutely genius

A remarkable performance. I wish I had seen it live as the carefully thought positioning of the instruments and the vocalists must have created a blending sound, crafted almost to perfection. On the side, the evangelist's facial expressions are mesmerising.

Everything about Netherlands Bach Society videos is perfect. Aside from sublime musical quality and superb performance of all members, the cinematography and sound engineering are impeccable. The fact that the videos are ad-free, and the audience ovation is cut from at the beginning and the end of the videos makes them even more perfect. I can't describe my feeling about the joy you brought to my life. I wish I was able to see your live performance. Thank you and keep on being awesome! Happy 100th anniversary! ❤️

Musique sublime, divine . Bach connecte l'esprit avec le divin .Quel mystérieux et inexplicable alchimiste ...Un grand merci au Maestro Van Veldhoven de mettre les productions de la Netherlands Bach Society sur youtube a disposition du plus grand nombre.

Superb recording and playing!! I wish you could add TRvid subtitles in German and English. The music is so deep that the text deserves to be understood from everybody while listening too...

Una dei concerti più emozionanti mai sentiti, Bach è un genio sublime e profondo.

What a fantastically heartfelt performance, and all the more special because of the small choir. The opening chorus is the best I have ever heard it performed, with those wonderfully relentless bass notes going all through it and the wonderful crescendos. The conductor, the choir and the orchestra are all feeling every nuance of this marvellous work. I particularly love the bass solo 'Come Ponder, Oh My Soul'. I have loved this since i first performend this work, when a student at Trinity College of Music, London, in the 1970's .

Extraordinary.... !! I think this is the most powerful, dynamic, sensitive, precise and bewitching version i know ! I have not enough words to describe what i'am feeling. I already listened it 15 time at least, and every time it's like a metaphysical experience of pure beauty. Tempi of the Chorals are really amazing, so we can better appreciate the magnificence of these Bach's jewels ! All the Soloists are wonderful (maybe Pilate is a little bit weak compared to the others....) The Choir is stupendous in all aspects. This music is a nectar for the soul, and i thank you from the bottom of my heart to bring us these highlights of human creation !

SJ Passion sounds so antiquated yet mysterious at same time, exuding ageless energy and grace.. And the Netherlands Bach Society... every piece I listen to on TRvid is like an ironclad textbook example of how the piece is to be performed. Superb!

Heartfelt thanks from the coast of Maine for this beautiful Easter concert during the quarantine. This performance leaves me breathless and in tears, grateful that I will be able to re-visit as often as I like. Sending a virtual hug to all of these amazing musicians. Thank you!

So inconcevable a human being was able to hear these architectures and give them to the rest of us. Bach will be one of the few constant enjoyments life has brought to me. I am so grateful.

You'll hear every composer after Bach attempt to better him... none of them do, and none of them has/had the talent to tie his shoes. Mozart tried it, the closest he came was the opening to the Requiem and Beethoven was a noise maker. I'll give you this, however, Handel was close!

@RantzBizGroup All such comparisons are invidious.

This three parts - "Mein teurer Heiland", "Ruht wohl" and "Ach Herr, lass Dein lieb Engelein" - , perfectly performed by the wonderful Bach society of Nederlands, I want my guests will hear at my funeral.
