Membra Jesu Nostri - I Ad Pedes - D. Buxtehude [BuxWV75]

Membra Jesu Nostri - cantata I 'Ad Pedes' [BuxWV75 ]

Luthers Bach Ensemble didn’t want to let another Passion time pass by without a musical contribution of her own. When it became apparent that performing J.S. Bach’s Passion classic would be impossible in 2021 as well, LBE chose the smaller Membra Jesu Nostri by Dieterich Buxtehude. Membra Jesu Nostri consists of seven cantatas, which depict the suffering of Christ and his tormented body. Unfortunately, this beautiful Passion music couldn’t result in a 'real' concert with you as a live audience either, and therefore LBE has created a beautiful video recording instead.

This first of seven cantatas can be viewed for free.
If you also want access to the other 6 cantatas so that you can listen the cycle in its entirety, you can!

Pre-order via the link below your access to the entire piece (7 cantatas) + an extra video in which the musicians explore and discuss the background of Buxtehude's music.

In the ordering process you will be asked for your email address and on Sunday April 4 (Easter Sunday) you will receive an email that gives access to the entire production.
