Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750):
6 CHORALES FROM ST MATTHEW PASSION (BWV 244)

The St Matthew Passion is the second of two Passion settings by Bach that have survived in their entirety, the first being the St John Passion, first performed in 1724. The St Matthew Passion was probably first performed on 11 April (Good Friday) 1727 in the St. Thomas Church, and again in 1729, 1736, and 1742. Bach then revised it again between 1743 and 1746. It is widely regarded as one of the greatest masterpieces of classical sacred music.

Bach used 6 different chorale melodies for his St Matthew Passion chorales, demonstrated by the 6 chorales included here. In addition to those 6 is the chorale fantasia "O Mensch, bewein dein Sünde groß" (closing part I), which is available in a separate video:
