Abstract:
Pygmalion and Raphael Pichon's new recording marks a major stage in this fifteen-year companionship between the composer and the ensemble. The culmination of a body of work characterized by its precision and humility. Read through the prism of a tragedy in five acts, at once intimate and theatrical, human and metaphysical, the Passion is revealed here in a new light as a deeply moving epic exploring the very heart of Lutheran spirituality.
