St. Matthew Passion Arrangement with one orchestra only (arr. D. Sourisse) by Johann Sebastian Bach 4-Part - Sheet Music

By Johann Sebastian Bach

As well as soloists and double choir, Bach's "great Passion" calls for two complete orchestras. That posed problems even for Bach: he could only perform this Passion in one of his two Leipzig churches - there simply was not enough space in the Nikolaikirche! The same applies today to many choirs, quite apart from the financial expense of the double orchestra. In this arrangement, Dominique Sourisse combines the two orchestras, and has endeavored to retain the double-choir effect with individual solutions without ever resorting to the formulaic. With the alternative solutions offered in some movements, it is possible to perform the work with just single strings. All the vocal parts (soloists and chorus) are unaltered in the arrangement, so that the vocal scores and choral scores from the original version can be used.. Score available separately - see item CA.3124400
