First performed on Good Friday 286 years ago:
The Passion of our Lord J[esus] C[hrist] according to the Evangelist Matthew was first performed in 1727 in the Thomaskirche in Leipzig, where Johann Sebastian Bach was Kantor of the School and Directions Chori musici of Leipzig.
Listen to the choral "Kommt, Ihr Töchter helft mir klagen", performed by the Thomanerchor (founded in the year of the Lord 1212). The recording was made in 1999 in the Thomaskirche of Leipzig.
Here is another recording of an aria from St Matthew Passion, performed by Delphine Galou.
In case that you are willing to listen to the whole masterpiece, here is a complete recording from the Collegium Vocale Gent.
Enjoy your holiday.
