Bach's St. John's Passion on Holy Saturday is an unforgettable experience of the suffering of Christ.
In the St John Passion, Bach sets the Passion of Christ to music as the story is told in the Gospel of John. He first performed the piece at Vespers on Good Friday (the Friday before Easter), in Leipzig. It was the first Passion music he had written as cantor in Leipzig.
