Description:
Composed in 1680, Dieterich Buxtehude’s Passion cycle 'Membra Jesu Nostri' is among the most deeply moving masterpieces of the North German Baroque. This seven-part Passion music presents an intimate and profoundly touching musical contemplation of the limbs of the crucified Christ (Latin/German). Scored for soloists (SSATB), five-part mixed choir, strings, and basso continuo, the work reveals extraordinary spiritual depth and emotive power. This edition by Edition Merseburger contains the meticulously prepared instrumental part for Violin 1 and Violin 2, providing ensembles and orchestras with the perfect foundation for expressive, historically informed performances during Passiontide.
