This book explores the dramatic thrust of each of Bach's four major works for choir and orchestra: Christmas Oratorio , St. John Passion , St. Matthew Passion , and Mass in B Minor . It guides the reader, movement by movement, through each work with an integrated presentation of commentary and text translation that pays particular attention to the interaction of text and music, suggesting reasons for Bach's musical choices.
