      Like many of his works, Bach has also edited the St. John Passion several times. A final version of Bach's hand is not available. The reworking concerns both the instrumentation as well as changes in the sequence of movements. The textual basis is the biblical account of the evangelist John (John 18 and 19) with the insertions from the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 26:75 and 27, 51-52). The hymns come from the current repertoire of the Bach's time and deviate only in a few cases from the original form. Due to the source material, the (complete) world premiere can be dated with sufficient certainty on April 7, 1724.

      Johannes-Passion BWV 245 (Klavierauszug)
      Johann Sebastian Bachs erste Passion aus dem Jahr 1724 basiert auf dem Bericht des Evangelisten Johannes über das Leiden und den Tod Jesus Christus. Während des etwa 130 Minuten langen Stückes wechseln sich Orchester und Chor mit ausgiebigen Solopassagen ab. Die Geschichte wird in teils begleiteten, teils Secco-Rezitativen von der Rolle des Evangelisten erzählt, regelmäßig werfen aber auch andere Solisten ein. Während das Werk eigentlich für die Verwendung im Karfreitags-Gottesdienst geschrieben wurde, wird es heute meist konzertant aufgeführt.
