Markus-Passion BWV 247
Ref.BWV 247
German Title: Markus-Passion
Latin Title: Passio secundum Marcum
English Title: St. Mark Passion
French Title: Passion Selon Saint Mark
Italian Title: La passione di Cristo secondo Marco.
Event: Passion to be performed on Good Friday
Composed:
Leipzig, 1731.
Most of the music lost, except for 1 movement revised in BWV 248 and 7 movements in original form in cantatas BWV 198 and BWV 54
1st performance: March 23, 1731 - Leipzig
2nd performance: March 27, 1734 - Leipzig (2nd version)
The 2009 Bach Jahrbuch contains an article on an interesting finding, made in a library in St Petersburg (Russia):
the text of a 2nd (?) performance of a Markus-Passion in 1744, conducted by Bach in Leipzig.
The text found indicares that Bach included 2 additional arias and changed the text at certain places.
This will not add any new music to this passion, called a passion-pasticcio, the remnants of which were described in the NBA KB II/9 (published in 2000) pp. 106-109.
Libretto:
Christian Friedrich Henrici (Picander)
