Bach: Christmas Oratorio / Weihnachtsoratorium

Sunday after New Year's Day: XLIII. "Ehre sei dir, Gott, gesungen", (Chorus) [feat. Capella Amsterdam]

De Matthäus Passion geldt in Nederland als de favoriete compositie in de passietijd en is verankerd in onze cultuur. The Bach Choir & Orchestra of the Netherlands is als geen ander in staat de symboliek, emotie en troost over te brengen aan u als luisteraar. 

Johann Sebastian Bach bedacht voor zijn magnus opus een unieke opstelling: twee koren en twee orkesten. De compositie vertelt het chronologische lijdensverhaal van Christus waarbij symboliek een grote rol speelt. Bach gebruikt allerlei muzikale middelen om rijke effecten te krijgen. Hij schreef voor zowel instrumenten als solisten specifieke rollen. De verteller: de evangelist, neemt u mee door het verhaal. Hij wordt afgewisseld door het koor, enerzijds intiem en dan weer overweldigend. Iedere solist heeft een eigen emotionele dimensie zoals liefde, smart, troost, beschouwend. 

De musici van the Bach Orchestra bespelen authentieke instrumenten uit Bachs tijd en het The Bach Choir wordt geroemd om haar dynamische en expressieve klank. De (inter)nationale solisten hebben een enorme toewijding wat hoorbaar en zichtbaar zal zijn tijdens de meesterlijke aria’s. Onder leiding van dirigent Pieter Jan Leusink zijn zij als geen ander in staat de symboliek, emotie en troost over te brengen aan u als luisteraar.

Story
The Lizard of Jaén.
In ancient times, when the walls of Jaén still trembled under the weight of the centuries, a creeping shadow slithered from the bowels of the earth. It was the Lizard of Jaén, a monstrous creature with scales as green as an olive tree, eyes like burning embers, and a breath that withered the fields. It was said to live in a cave near the Magdalena neighborhood, devouring livestock, travelers… and sometimes, even villagers.
The city lived in terror. No one dared approach its lair. Soldiers failed, wise men remained silent, and the people prayed. Until a young man named Martín, humble but resourceful, decided to confront the monster. Not with a sword, but with cunning.
Martín studied the lizard's habits, its routes, its rhythms. He discovered that the beast had one weakness: gluttony. So he devised a plan. He took a large sack of bread and meat, sprinkled it with gunpowder, and left it near the cave as an offering. Then he hid, waiting.
The lizard came out, sniffed, and devoured the feast without suspecting it. When it returned to its cave, the gunpowder took effect: an explosion echoed in the hills, and the monster fell, overcome by its own appetite.
The city celebrated Martín as a hero. Not for his strength, but for his mind. Since then, the Lizard of Jaén has become a symbol of the victory of intelligence over brutality. Today, its figure adorns fountains and legends, reminding us that even the most fearsome monsters can be defeated… with ingenuity.
