St. John Passion / The Passion of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ
Historia des Leidens und Sterbens unsers Herrn und Heilandes Jesus Christi nach dem Evangelisten St. Johannem SWV 481, 1666
With his three purely a cappella Passions, Schütz closes his series of historical settings: text-oriented compositions that are both technically demanding and intensely expressive. These are works of maturity, which bring an entire musical period to a close. With the Stuttgarter Schütz Edition, Carus-Verlag offers the trilogy of Schütz’s Passions in critical editions with detailed information about their composition, transmission, and performance practice.

Jesus is taken prisoner Evangelist:
When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered, and his disciples. And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus oft times resorted thither with his disciples. Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons. Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them:
Jesus:

Gefangennahme Jesu Evangelist: Da Jesus solches geredet hatte, ging er hinaus mit seinen J?ngern ?ber den Bach Kidron; da war ein Garte, darein ging Jesus und seine J?nger.

Composer
Heinrich Schütz
| 1585-1672Heinrich Schütz is regarded as the first German musician of European stature. As a choirboy from 1599 at the court of Landgrave Moritz of Hessen-Kassel, he received a thorough education. In 1608 he began a law degree in Marburg, but broke this off in 1609 in order, with the support of the Landgrave, to study composition with Giovanni Gabrieli, organist at St Mark’s in Venice. In 1613 Schütz returned to Kassel, but two years later was enticed away by Elector Johann Georg I of Saxony to the Dresden court as “Organist und Director der Musica”, where he held the position of Hofkapellmeister (court Kapellmeister) from 1617 until his death. Schütz’s great cycles of vocal works marked the high point of his reputation in Germany and northern Europe. But these represent only part of Schütz’s output; individual works are represented in printed collections with works by other composers, others only survive in manuscript, and much has been lost. The Stuttgart Schütz Edition makes available Schütz’s complete oeuvre, and all works are also published in practical Urtext editions. Personal details
