St John Passion
SATB+solos
Music by JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH
Barenreiter, 1981
The files linked are from John Fletcher Music, as the music is out of copyright it seems reasonable to share them with the rest of the choir.
Generally you will want to play an MP3 file, and ignore the MIDI, music XML & Avid Scorch files.
- To play a part, click on the required link to go to DropBox, then click on the play button (little blue triangle).
- To download a part, click on the required link to go to DropBox, then click on the Download button top right and choose 'Direct download'.
Depending on your web browser it will save to your downloads directory or prompt you to choose where to save the file.
Note that some MP3 files cover more than one piece. The MP3 files themselves are numbered sequentially but the links below are numbered as in the New Novello edition albeit with the title of the first piece.
I've also removed pieces (e.g. recitative) that the choir aren't involved in.
