About Passions
Gottfried August Homilius composed Passions for Good Friday services at the Kreuzkirche in Dresden where he was music director (Kreuzkantor) from 1755 to 1785, including oratorios based on the gospels of Matthew and John, Luke and Mark in German. While these works were neglected, their revival began at the Kreuzkirche and led to publications, performances and recordings. Reviewers agree that the compositions in the style of Empfindsamkeit deserve attention.
