Description
Filmed and recorded in the Sheldonian Theatre’s architectural splendour and presented in a deluxe edition on CD audio and Blu-ray video with Dolby Atmos, this acclaimed performance from Good Friday 2021 marked Sir John Eliot Gardiner’s return to live concerts. He says: “I recorded the piece for the first time for Archiv Produktion back in 1986 and it remains truly special to me. Bach conceived the piece as much as an act of worship as a work of religious art. Almost 300 years after it was heard for the first time, it continues to move listeners of all faiths and none.”
