I'm halfway through listening to this oratorio of the Passion. It's magnificent. And I don't understand why so many of these great 18th C works are being ignored today. Thank you again, Andrew.
So true and he wrote two other Easter themed pieces (including an Easter Oratorio that I'm listening to on CD right now) which don't appear on video - not anywhere I could find anyway....
Don't quite get this. Seems to start with Bach St Matthew Passion?
Anyway, like what Kit says, why was he forgotten?
Catching up after trip to Italy
