Gottfried
August Homilius belongs
to the last generation of
composers of the 18th
century who, in addition
to the popular Passion
oratorios, continued to
write oratorio Passions
using biblical texts.
From his pen a Passion
for each of the four
Gospels has survived.
With sensitive arias,
unusal orchestral sound
and expressive turba
choruses Homilius
translated the
traditional Passion to
his times. It was surely
not a coincidence that in
Hamburg Carl Philipp
Emanuel Bachr resorted
primarily to the Passions
of Homilius, especially
the St. Mark Passion,
which he first performed
in an abridged version in
1770 and whose music he
employed in 14 of his 21
pasticcio Passions. Score
and part available
separately - see item
