The St.
John Passion, Bach's
first passion oratorio,
can hardly be understood
asonework. Between 1724
and 1750 the work was
performed at least four
times in various Leipzig
churches under the
composer's direction and
for every one of these
occasions it was revised
- sometimes quite
substantially.
Thi
s edition presents the
St. John Passion in its
second version of 1725,
of which only excerpts
were rendered in the New
Bach Edition volume II/4
(1973). This version as
well as the last one of
1749 constitute the two
versions that have come
down to us almost in
their
entirety.
Most
recently found sources -
in particular the
libretto print of the
passion rediscovered in
2015 - are taken into
consideration in this
edition for the first
time.
