The St. Luke Passion is a setting of the Passion story formerly attributed to J.S. Bach, and is included in the BWV catalogue under the number 246. The general consensus today is that this composition is a work not by Bach but by a contemporary of his, one who most likely lived and worked in central Germany and that Bach copied out and performed this composer's work.    

 

Some of you may remember that this work has been performed before at Trinity, and it was very well received.  It invests the Passion narrative, including solo arias, recitatives and chorales, in a very compelling and highly dramatic way.
