Where it came from
The Markus-Passion, or St Mark Passion (BWV 247), represents one of the most enigmatic chapters in the catalog of Johann Sebastian Bach. While the libretto by Christian Friedrich Henrici, known as Picander, survives, the original musical score was long considered lost, leading to various reconstructions and efforts to assemble the work from Bach's existing cantatas and other sacred compositions.
This particular recording, released on the Studio-Produktion label (CMS 811), features the Kirchenchor St. Marien. Such recordings were often produced to bring these scholarly reconstructions to a wider audience, aiming to provide a reverent interpretation of what Bach’s lost masterwork might have sounded like. The production reflects the mid-twentieth-century trend of smaller, church-based ensembles attempting to revive historical liturgical works with a focus on archival integrity and traditional performance practices.
