TheMagnificat, the four extant Passions (Luke, John, Matthew, and Mark) and the Masses (B minor and the four Lutheran short masses) are included. The dramatic qualities of the works and their suitability for concert and stage presentation are emphasized. Vocalists and instruments are identified for each number, as is Bach's style in setting each movement.
