__** Assignment: **__ [] //(Notes are taken from []) // || God's People Pray for Intervention ||= media type="file" key="St John Excerpt 1.mp3" width="240" height="20" || The music suggests an image of stormy weather, with clouds racing across the sky and crowds of terrified people praying to God, alternately demanding and begging for deliverance. || God hears his people ||= media type="file" key="St John Excerpt 2.mp3" width="240" height="20" || 1. Ah great King, great for all times, how can I sufficiently proclaim this love? No human's heart, however, can conceive of a fit offering to You. 2. I cannot grasp with my mind, how to imitate Your mercy. How can I then repay Your deeds of love with my actions? || "And the soldiers wove a crown of thorns and placed it on his head and put a purple robe on him and said: Hail to you, king of the Jews!" ||= media type="file" key="St John Excerpt 3.mp3" width="240" height="20" || This movement sounds like a mocking dance. Picture a crowd of soldiers dancing in front of Jesus—wiggling, insulting, and jeering at him, and becoming louder, more violent and less humorous as the movement progresses. || "And so Jesus came out and wore a crown of thorns and a purple robe. And he said to them: Look, Behold the man! When the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out and said: Crucify him,crucify him!" ||= media type="file" key="St John Excerpt 4.mp3" width="240" height="20" || Pilate has declared that he sees no fault in Jesus. It is not what the high priests want or need to hear. Pilate delivers his famous words: “Sehet, Welch ein Mensch!” (“Behold the man!),” and the crowd goes wild with fury,screaming “Kreuzige!” (“Crucify him!”). || Take him and crucify him; for I find no fault in him The Jews answered him We have a law and according to the law he should die because he made himself the son of God. ||= media type="file" key="St John Excerpt 5.mp3" width="240" height="20" || Pilate repeats his statement that he finds no fault in Jesus and tries to abdicate his responsibility for trying Jesus. The high priests take a new and clever tack,stating, “We have a law, and according to this law, Jesus should perish” || Pilate has just said, “What I have written, I have written,” What do you see in the bass part of this chorale? ||= media type="file" key="St John Excerpt 6.mp3" width="240" height="20" || In the bottom of my heart Your name and Cross alone sparkles at all times and hours, for which I can be joyful. Shine forth for me in that image as comfort in my need, how You, Lord Christ, so gently bled to death! || God pays the greatest cost ever paid for anything by submitting himself to death, so that we may live. ||= media type="file" key="St John Excerpt 7.mp3" width="240" height="20" || Note that the accompanying instruments play constant sixteenth notes in what is otherwise a slow, soft movement—expressive of heartbeat, trembling, life. In bar 70, the sixteenth-note motion ceases and the music stops. The soloist, the orchestra and the listeners must at this point face the fact that Jesus is dead. || “Rest well, you holy bones, that I may cease from weeping; rest well, and let me rest, too” ||= media type="file" key="St John Excerpt 8.mp3" width="240" height="20" || This music brings a formal, graceful closure to the horrifying story which has preceded this movement. The time for wailing, gnashing of teeth, and rending of garments is over, both for the characters in the drama and for the listeners. The movement is in c minor, as was the opening movement of the Passion. The following final movement modulates to the relative major, E flat, expressing the hope, even expectation, of the resurrection. || The Passion according to St. John - J.S.
