The chorales themselves were most definitely well-known to the people of the time. We now know that Bach did not perform the chorales with the congregation. However, there was a strong tradition of doing just that with fore-runners to these most famous Passions from that era. Also for our upcoming performance I look upon you as an extension of the chorus onstage, even if the effect will be similar to the congregation joining in. I think it will be most effective and beautiful!!<\/p>\nSincerely, Music conveys a prophetical message, which reveals a higher life form towards which humanity is developing. And it is because of this message that music appeals to people of all races and nationalities.<\/em><\/p>\n – Arnold Schoenberg<\/p>\n\t We will print music for the workshop. If you have prepared your own scores and prefer to use them, please bring with you.<\/p>\n Please note: you will be singing from your seats in the audience. There may not be ideal lighting in those positions, so please be prepared to sing without being able to see your music perfectly. You may bring and use a small personal light if you wish.<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNo. 5: Dein Will gescheh, Herr Gott, zugleich\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNo. 14: Petrus, der nicht denkt zur\u00fcck\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNo. 15: Christus, der uns selig macht\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNo. 28: Er nahm alles wohl in acht\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t performed by\u00a0Bach Collegium Japan, Masaaki Suzuki, conductor:<\/p>\n\t
