Kurzbeschreibung |
This fertile examination of this group of 14 surviving liturgical works begins with J.S. Bach's St. John passion, concentrating on its first and last versions. Beyond providing a uniquely detailed assessment of the passion, this book is the first work to take the work beyond the scope of an isolated study, considering its meaning from a variety of musical and historical standpoints. The author thereby uncovers a range of theological implications underlying Bach's creative approach itself. Building considerably on his previous work, the author here expands his methodological approach to Bach's vocal music by arguing for a multi-layered approach to religion in Bach's compositional process. He bases this approach primarily on two aspects of Bach's theology: first, the specific features of Johannine theology, which contrast with the more narrative approach found in the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke); and second, contemporary homiletic and devotional writings—material that is not otherwise easily accessible, and less so in English translation. The book provides an unprecedented, enlightening exploration of the theological and liturgical contexts within which this music was first heard. |
