Free Music Notes for Bach: St. Matthew Passion

Free Music Review: After all these years !!
Hit: 4 Stars

After all these years of hearing this great work in an atmosphere of absolute correctness, it completely blows me away to hear Bernstein unafraid to be swept up in the immense passion of Christ's trial, crucifixion and death. Bernstein wasn't obsessed with 'what did Bach intend or want here' but instead was swept up in the drama depicted by St. Matthew. And, I think Bach would have liked that. The English version here is not the King James which would have helped the translation somewhat. Critics can have a field day with David Lloyd's almost operatic evangelist, but I saw it in context and liked it. Maybe this deeply emotional version is well worth reconsidering after all these years and many ultra proper German versions that in essence become museum works... dry and terribly calculating. It is so obvious that Bernstein considered this one of the most deeply serious works ever written. He loved the work... period. Warren Taylor

Bach: St. Matthew Passion Poster

For all of Leonard Bernstein's remarkably eclectic affinities, his legacy as a conductor is not often associated with Baroque music. Yet this remastered recording of Bach's St. Matthew Passion--like that of his Bach concertos with Glenn Gould and others--is a moving document of musical and emotional empathy. True, Bernstein's stylistic approach (the frequently languorous tempos, the italicized effect accorded certain significant moments in Bach's richly textured drama) and employment of large-scale choral and orchestral forces have long since fallen out of favor in the wake of the "authentic- performance" movement. And purists will certainly object to the use of English texts as well as numerous cuts from the original score (mostly in Part Two). That said, Bernstein's reading has a thrilling cogency and dramatic consistency fully abetted by the New York Philharmonic's heartfelt playing as well as by the excellently prepared chorus. Listen to the subtly varied inflections of each recurrence of the chorale "O Lamb of God Most Holy" to signal the inexorable course of the tragedy, or to the devastating impact of the sorrowful final double chorus. The vocal soloists are unfortunately uneven, ranging from David Lloyd's erratic, hooty tenor as the Evangelist to the multidimensional Jesus characterized by bass William Wildermann. The set includes a bonus track of Bernstein discussing how Bach unfolds his vividly dramatic structure in the Passion. -- Thomas May
