Approved

La Passione secondo Giovanni, che rientra fra i sommi monumenti sonori di Johann Sebastian Bach, vide la luce nel periodo in cui il musicista ricopriva l’incarico di “Cantor et Director Musices” in quel di Lipsia. Non solo docente di canto, dunque, ma in più organizzatore e compositore di musica sacra per le due principali chiese della città.

Anche questa esperienza – come quella precedente, seppur molto diversa, fatta alla corte di Cöthen – fu per lui estremamente stimolante.
Basti pensare che durante la lunga permanenza a Lipsia Bach dovette sovrintendere all’esecuzione di ben 26 Passioni del Venerdì Santo: alcune di sua composizione, altre frutto del lavoro di musicisti come Telemann e Händel.

La Johannes-Passion venne sicuramente eseguita a partire dal 1724 in almeno quattro occasioni e in altrettante diverse versioni.

The Passion according to John , which is one of Johann Sebastian Bach's supreme sound monuments, saw the light in the period in which the musician held the position of "Cantor et Director Musices" in Leipzig. Not only teacher of singing, therefore, but also organizer and composer of sacred music for the two main churches of the city.

This experience too – like the previous one, albeit very different, at the court of Cöthen – was extremely stimulating for him.
Suffice it to say that during his long stay in Leipzig Bach had to supervise the performance of as many as 26 Good Friday Passions: some of his compositions, others the result of the work of musicians such as Telemann and Händel.

The Johannes-Passion was certainly performed starting from 1724 on at least four occasions and in as many different versions.
