T876033270Bach s PASSION is presented on one evening in two parts and retells the dramatic story of the events leading to Christ s crucifixion. Part one includes the last supper and the betrayal and arrest of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, while part two depicts His trial, crucifixion and burial. Jonathan Miller strips away all traditional performance conventions of this sacred work: it is sung, in a new English translation by Paul Goodwin, by soloists and a choir - all casually dressed - who interact with the full orchestra. The result is a production conveying the full power and overwhelming drama of Bach s final and most revered Passion.Producer National Theatre. Company Southbank Sinfonia. Translation Paul Goodwin.
