A powerful and dramatic setting of Matthew’s passion narrative by German composer Heinrich Schütz. Written in 1666 for a cappella choir and solo recitative, this piece is a rarely-performed hidden gem of early Baroque church music. Sung by the Lux Choir of the Episcopal Church of Princeton under the direction of Connor Fluharty.
