Description: This reconstruction is of a later version of this Passion than the others available, using a text book found only in 2009 in St. Petersburg, Russia with its front page likely dated in Bach's handwriting. In addition to rearranging of pieces, it also includes two arias absent from previous versions, orchestrated like the rest of the piece from similar pieces in mood and meter from other Bach works. German-English texts. Gudrun Sidonie Otto (soprano), Terry Wey (alto), Daniel Johannsen (tenor), Stephan MacLeod, Hanno Müller-Brachmann (basses), Basel Boys' Choir, Capriccio Baroque Orchestra; Markus Teutschbein.
