The superlative Pygmalion chorus are at the center of this new recording of the St. John Passion. Their striking presence radiates throughout the work, their exemplary articulation and collective energy moulding the drama and carrying it’s emotional charge. Raphaël Pichon’s flexible yet precise direction restores it’s original dramatic arc, instilling the peerless team of soloists with the same demandingly high standards of musical narrative and truth. This Passion wins out through it’s clarity of gesture and compellingly forceful actualization.
