Watch Bach, St Matthew Passion - Lucy Crowe, John Nelson, Orchestre de Chambre de Paris (2011) Online
John Nelson conducts St Matthew Passion, BWV 244, a work showing a deep spirituality premiered on the 15th of April 1729. Requiring two choirs, two orchestras, four soloists and one narrator embodying Matthew the Evangelist, Bach's St Matthew Passion is a monumental musical work whose complex architecture is here echoed by the exceptional setting of the Basilica of St Denis
