The "Passion According to St. John" by Johann Sebastian Bach, first performed in 1724, is an outstanding masterpiece of Baroque music that sets the Passion story of Jesus according to the Gospel of John to music. This work is the earliest Passion music by J. S. Bach and is today one of the most popular pieces in the concert repertoire. The powerful and profound composition impresses with its moving arias and is a highlight of this year's program.
