in my humble opinion, the Saint Matthew's Passion is the greatest piece of classical music ever composed, and I would practically put the St Johns' Passion in the same category, they are just incredible, monumental, epic, spiritual masterpieces
Watch this episode of the original "Outer Limits" TV series, where a VERY young David McCallum says, "Bach will most likely outlive us all!" : www.dailymotion.com/video/x4jj142
I SO prefer this approach with heavier orchestration and larger choruses than the stripped down "more appropriate" early music approach. It's overwhelmingly beautiful.
Bach: The masters’ master. Not only a mysical genius, but a brilliant Lutheran theologian. All his music was composed to glorify the Triune God for His gift of forgiveness, life, and salvation in Jesus Christ, the Savior!
@@stevetutty2818 unfortantly this music is from god, without god there is no music, without spirituality there is no music, bach music mozart music, all glory to god. all glory to nature
We're preforming this every easter, at least two times, in both Malmö and Lund and sometimes Helsingborg. So if you ever append to be in the south of Sweden around easter, keep your eyes open for the St Matthew Passion by Malmö Kammarkör (Chamber Chior).
I'm glad that Bach is still being performed this way.I am neither a 'basher' of modern or authentic performance. It's the same wonderful mucis whether dressed down or up. I'd love to have been there.
Como me emociono quando ouço Bach, está obra expressa o anseio de minha alma, me eleva a uma plena comunhão com o Divino, e me desprede do mundo material, e me conecta com o celestial. A Jesus seja dada toda Honra e toda Glória.Te amo Jesus, pois morreu em lugar, pra me dar Vida Eterna.🙌🏻
Chorus I Come, ye daughters, share my mourning, See ye-(Chorus II) whom?-(Chorus I) the bridegroom there, See him-(Chorus II) how?-(Chorus I) just like a lamb! Chorale O Lamb of God, unspotted Upon the cross's branch slaughtered, See ye,-what?-see him forbear, Alway displayed in thy patience, How greatly wast thou despisèd. Look-where, then?-upon our guilt; All sin hast thou born for us, Else we had lost all courage. See how he with love and grace Wood as cross himself now beareth...
Bach's music is "bulletproof", the same way that the play "The Miracle Worker" transcends even amateur theatricals. Here's the famous "water" scene from the 1962 movie: th-cam.com/video/lUV65sV8nu0/w-d-xo.html
He comentado varias veces esta lectura de la Pasión de Mateo, de Bach, que para mí es la mejor expresión musical que se ha hecho de la Pasión de JesuCristo, y como no podía ser de otro modo, el director es Carl Ritcher.
The meaning is lost in translation, or the context at least; Novello translates "Herr, unser Herrscher" from the opening of the St. Johns Passion into "Hail, Lord our Master". Herr = Lord. It is a direct cry for the Lord. Hail doesn't have the same kind of impact, nor context, as Lord/Herr. Everything sounds best in the original language, because something shall always be lost in translation.
Sounds great. I just wish that the Soprano soloist had been a stronger singer. I couldn't hear her part at all, and it is one of the most beautiful pieces of the entire score. The St. Matthew Passion is wonderful.
1971 < 2009. It had to be an earlier archival recording, spliced together by sound designer Walter Murch. Which version of the Passion that was, only he and Lucas probably know.
I believe "Svenska Kyrkan" Church of Sweden has a fairly large budget for musicians, arranging concerts and other type of cultural activities. But external sponsors are sometimes also engaged.
Of course there are two theories to recording choral and orchestral productions. The recording studio method obviously involves many directional microphones and requires a complex series of soundstage procedures involving several hours of set up using recording Engineers and a crew. The method used in this video only uses 2 high quality directional microphones raised above the audience by about 20 feet, resulting in the approximation of sound that an individual would hear, if present in the audience.
Could have governments who control plastic waste, instead of tossing it into the oceans. Could have tighter laws for endangered species. And, **OH, YEAH!**, we need cleaner sound engineering for TH-cam music. Get your priorities straight...
False. You need to understand the meaning of the words, and the context they were applied in, in order to fully know how to convey the right emotions. Sincerely, an ex-choirboy with 7 years of singing experience and many many hours of rehearsing St. Matthews Passion and other Bach's works behind him.
If you want a perfect rendition, listen to a studio recording. Otherwise, **HEY**!! This is REALITY, a REAL EVENT with REAL PEOPLE. Such things still happen...lol

Bach's music transcends the vocabulary of words in conveying meaning. The language does not matter. Bach's language was and remains his music!

God knew before Bach was born that Bach would be adding to the repertoire of heavenly music.

YES!! A conductor who can speed it up without making it sound like a country dance! High 5!!
100% right, good observation
Malmø kammerkor presterer noe av det mest fantastiske jeg har hørt ,og dette er i stor grad dirigenten Stenlunds fortjeneste.
Quel privilège de connaître ce monument musical,Suzanne.
Perfect tempo and beautiful sound.
MAGNIFICENT PERFORMANCE !!!
This is pure accoustic sound.
This is the best thing ever my ears have let in.
This music is boring and sucks

In Malmo? Thought it would have been drowned out by the Islamic call to prayer
There is a soul in it... I wish I heard it live!
Wunderbar or underbar or wonderful. German, Swedish and English.

J'ai été saisie par cette ouverture la première fois que je l'ai entendue, au Koncerts Gebow d'Amsterdam. MAGISTRAL.

The voice of the Almighty I AM THAT I AM.
Chorus I
Come, ye daughters, share my mourning,
See ye-(Chorus II) whom?-(Chorus I) the bridegroom there,
See him-(Chorus II) how?-(Chorus I) just like a lamb!
Chorale
O Lamb of God, unspotted
Upon the cross's branch slaughtered,
See ye,-what?-see him forbear,
Alway displayed in thy patience,
How greatly wast thou despisèd.
Look-where, then?-upon our guilt;
All sin hast thou born for us,
Else we had lost all courage.
See how he with love and grace
Wood as cross himself now beareth...
Gosh, performing this GIGANTIC masterpiece TWICE? that's one heck of an easter. anyway, thanks for sharing, this really was gorgeous!
Very moving performance
Beatiful sound ,perfect tempo
so i more love my Church
That's the whole point of religious music...

It's very difficult to find a bad performance of this, the music is so perfect, even ham fisted performances seem good.

You seem to be the second person on earth to know what perfection is. I thought that I would be forewarned of your coming
There were *12* people to first experience perfection (The Disciples of Christ)...

Bravo.
The THX-1138 ending song.
I think, slowly. But beautiful.
A tripod or video stabilzation sofware would help.
Awesome bass reproduction - there seem to two men playing large basses while seated.
Sounds great. I just wish that the Soprano soloist had been a stronger singer. I couldn't hear her part at all, and it is one of the most beautiful pieces of the entire score.
The St. Matthew Passion is wonderful.
Is that Nick Clegg on the double bass? :o\
Listening on a 2 mm.phone speaker..Can't be right
If you know what is sung, why would you bother what language it is in??
Good point...

Several choir members sing without scores - must have rehearsed or sung many times.
Are the musicians paid by the government to give this type of performance in Sweden.

Lite för tung och seg för min smak. Jag vill ha inte fullt så tungt tempo i Matteuspassionen.

Oh, hush...
Perhaps you will feel more comfortable going with them!
Women in a Bach Work?? The appropriate way is using childs. It is the tradition.
More TH-cam goblins, wherever you look...
Much too slow for my taste.
The pace matches the rendition used in the final scene of THX-1138:

X00
Not the beste performance. Too bad. Yet the opening is normally magical. Not this one
it pisses me off that this is in swedish. can we at least sing the works in the original language they were written in. good lord.
go to you room
Oh hush, you TH-cam goblin...
A gallant observation.
too bad its in German =(
Last time I looked, Bach was German too...lol
