Passion Oratorio by lautten compagney BERLIN with the Sing-Akademie zu Berlin
The Death of Jesus' by Carl Heinrich Graun was a classic in Berlin concert life for many years and has been on the programs of the Sing-Akademie and other concert and choral societies almost continuously at Easter time since its premiere in 1755. It was only towards the end of the 19th century that the Passion Oratorio was supplanted by the increasingly popular Passions by Johann Sebastian Bach and fell into oblivion. The concert in the Sophienkirche will take place as part of the lautten compagney, the Staats- und Domchor and the Sing-Akademie zu Berlin's Easter Festival 2025. An invitation to rediscover this unknown masterpiece of Passion composition.
