"St. John Passion" And The Passionate Journey of Resonance Works

Pittsburgh in the Round: There’s no other story like it. Betrayal, suffering, and death. Christ’s Passion is the dramatic finale of Jesus’ life on earth, retold in myriad ways. Whether one of Johann Sebastian Bach’s classic oratorios or a more modern musical telling (like Jesus Christ Superstar), the tale is dramatic and moving, regardless of personal faith. These works are theatre that is driven by some of the most compelling music fueling the storytelling.
