{"product_id":"brockes-passion-761203570522","title":"Brockes-Passion","description":"\"Jesus, tortured and dying for the sins of the world\": This is how the Hamburg librettist and senator Barthold Heinrich Brockes (1680-1747) titled his dramatic adaptation of the Passion narrative-a text so popular that it was set to music nearly a dozen times in Hamburg alone. Composers included Reinhard Keiser, Johann Mattheson, George Frideric Handel, and Georg Philipp Telemann, among others. The jurist and diplomat Jacob Schuback (1726-1784) also composed his version of this so-called Brockes-Passion. And one must not assume that he, the son of a highly respected family, was merely a dilettante in the art of music. What Schuback created around the age of 30 during his musical \"leisure hours\" is, in the truest sense of the word, a gripping work. Choruses, recitatives, and arias follow one another with an almost operatic intensity, while characters imbued with vivid reality come to life with striking immediacy. Unsurprisingly, this Passion acquires a more profound, secondary significance","brand":"Cpo Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46360535498835,"sku":"2706423X","price":33.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0732\/1937\/5187\/files\/4413315_d2d5f7f6-f761-4930-b556-4914fd95ba82.jpg?v=1790269912","url":"https:\/\/www.deepdiscount.com\/products\/brockes-passion-761203570522","provider":"Deep Discount","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
