\n

Deftly exploiting the popular appeal and emotional immediacy of\nsamba, salsa, flamenco, tango, and the elemental vigor of folk and\npopular motifs, Grammy® winner Osvaldo Golijov’s La Pasión según\nSan Marcos sets Christ’s betrayal, death, and resurrection amidst\nthe streets of Latin America.

\n

The influential US radio network, NPR, hailed Pasión as one of\nthe 50 most important records of the decade. Commissioned by the\nInternational Bach Academy, it bowed in 2000 in Stuttgart on the\n250th anniversary of Bach’s death, then toured the world.

\n

Osvaldo Golijov since refined Pasión to such an extent that\nDeutsche Grammophon felt it imperative to release this new studio\nrecording in tandem with the DVD of a 2008 live performance. These\nsupercede the 2000 audio-only live recording of the premiere by\nincorporating the revisions of “one of the most gifted composers of\na new era”. (All Things Considered, NPR)
