My first reaction in writing this short review was to use a title such as “Bach’s Christmas Oratorio — How Not To” — but let me start properly: This year’s Christmas concert in the Tonhalle Zurich (on Friday, 2014-12-19) was given by the Zürcher Sing-Akademie (Zurich Singing Academy), the professional choir, founded in 2011, following the footsteps of the Schweizer Kammerchor (Swiss Chamber Choir)…
Bach, St.John Passion BWV 245, with the following artists: Harnoncourt / Equiluz (1965), Jochum / Haefliger (1967), Rotzsch / Schreier (1976), Koopman / de Mey (1993), Suzuki / Türk (1998), Gardiner / Padmore (2003), Layton / Bostridge (2012)
