About

The St. Mark Passion belongs to the lesser known treasures among the sacred opus of J S Bach. Thus, the present recording made in the Frauenkirche Dresden is all the more spectacular, since it is performed in the reconstructed version of 1731 published by Carus. The actor Dominique Horwitz recites the text of the Evangelist, alternating with the arias and chorales.

October 2010

Augmented to nine voices, Amarcord and the small-scale forces of the Cologne Academy turn in an agreeably soft-grained intimate (if even-keeled) account in live performances from Dresden's acoustically-generous Frauenkirche
3 out of 5 stars

One of Bach's lost settings of the Passion narrative, the St Mark has long tantalised musicologists, and various attempts at reconstructions exist. In this version from Amarcord and Michael Alexander Willens, the Evangelist's text is spoken, not sung.
