Kartäuserkantorei Köln | Concerto Köln

The St John Passion is now part of the world's musical heritage and has lost none of its emotional and enlightening impact since its premiere.

In Johann Sebastian Bach's composition, the Gospel of St John's account of Jesus' capture and burial is brought to life again and again. It deals with power and faith, powerlessness and love, collective anger and individual hope. Together with Concerto Köln, the Kartäuserkantorei Köln transforms it into a stirring narrative that seeks an answer to the question that, 300 years after the work was written, is more relevant than ever: »What is truth?«
