	Red Rose Music Passion
		Although compact, Passion is heavy and solidly built to last for decades of musical enjoyment.
		Passion features all-discrete low noise circuitry throughout, and has a headphone jack on the front panel for private listening or monitoring.
		Sonically, the Passion is the favorite of many listeners, combining warmth and delicacy with great body, authority, speed, and clarity.

	Johann Sebastian Bach
		Typically for the large musical family into which he was born, his career comprised a series of court and church posts in which he acted as a general musical factotum: composing, arranging, conducting, teaching and playing organ, harpsichord and violin.
		With regard to the fundamental musical technical discipline called "counterpoint", the combination of independent melodies to form a harmonically and rhythmically vital union, Bach's incomparable achievement dominates all of musical history, and is today the basis and touchstone for the entire discipline.
		The Passion According to St. Matthew is the apotheosis of Lutheran church music: in it the chorale, the concertato style, the recitative, the arioso, and the da capo aria are united under the ruling majesty of the central religious theme.

	Bach Choir of Bethlehem
		Some versions of the Passion begin earlier in the week, with Christ's triumphant entry into the city of Jerusalem; while this sets up the dramatic turn of events, as the jubilant welcome of Christ is abandoned for his death, it is technically not part of the Passion story.
		The problem with this genre of Passion was that the same texture and timbre was used for everything, so individual characters in the story could not be developed or distinguished by the music.
		In creating his Passions, Bach drew on parts of all these traditions, plus the musical practices common to his day, including the use of basso continuo, recitative, and a colorful orchestra.

	Amazing Journey
		At the start of the musical, Giorgio is in love with an exquisite married woman named Clara, portrayed by Rebecca Luker with grace and loveliness that extend to her bell-like singing.
		In Passion, these louvered walls serve as backdrop for Giorgio and Clara's intimate boudoir scenes as well as the scenes at the military base, and despite Howell Binkley's stunning lighting, the result fails to effectively evoke either locale.
		Passion won the Tony Award for best musical (and book and score) in a year when its chief competition was Beauty and the Beast.

	Passion
		The word passion is now used to mean a great enthusiam for some thing, but in a Christian context, the Passion (with a capital P) is the suffering of Jesus Christ in his final days, or a telling of this story in the Gospels.
		The word is also used to refer to a musical setting of this story.
		The best known musical settings of the Passion are by Johann Sebastian Bach, who wrote two Passions which have survived intact to the present day, one based on the Gospel of John (the St.

	Passion \| The A.V. Club
		By the time Sondheim and author/director James Lapine's 1994 musical Passion hit Broadway, critics and audiences alike had begun complaining that Sondheim was giving them nothing to hum on the way out of the theater.
		Passion's complex score and overtly operatic story—about 19th-century Spanish soldier Jere Shea, who nurtures a love affair with comely Marin Mazzie while fighting off the romantic advances of unattractive invalid Donna Murphy—doomed its prospects at the box office, and it was nearly 10 years before Sondheim mounted a new musical.
		Passion is Sondheim and Lapine's most relentless piece, with Murphy's literally lovesick character serving as both heroine and villainess in her irrational pursuit of the exasperated Shea.

		Musical setting of the Crucifixion story as told by one of the four Evangelists in the Gospels.
		A technique in which a musical pattern is repeated and manipulated so that it separates and overlaps itself, and then rejoins the original pattern; getting "out of phase" and back "in sync".
		Musical unit; often a component of a melody.

	Concert Review: Handel's 'Brockes Passion' moving (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Composers have traditionally lifted texts for their settings of the Passion, the accounts of Christ's life from the Last Supper through the Crucifixion, directly from one of the Gospels--then added dramatic expression and commentary through chorales, recitatives and arias that reflect on the action from the outside.
		Passion plays were repertoire favorites in medieval sacred drama, so a theatrical version by Handel, written when he was well-established as a star opera composer, isn't that much of a stretch.
		Central to a musical Passion setting is the Evangelist, the singer (usually a tenor) given the narrative and descriptive sections of the texts.

		The most vital development of the Passion in the 17th and 18th centuries was in Lutheran Germany, where both types were followed though the strongest tradition in the early 17th century was based on Walter.

	Peter Gabriel - Passion SACD review on AudioRevolution.com
		I find this album Passion, the music for the Martin Scorsese film “The Last Temptation of Christ,” to be yet another level of refinement in a stellar career from a master songwriter and, in this case, an excellent composer.
		Passion is mostly instrumental, with vocals (some from Gabriel himself) used as additional layers on an abstract musical composition.
		The closest thing to a single on Passion is “A Different Drum,” which lays down a hard-hitting beat as a base and builds on that with musical layers that, like a fine meal, just gets better and better as it goes on.

	Passion
		Based on the Italian movie Passione d'amore, it tells of Giorgio (Jere Shea), a soldier, and Clara (Marin Mazzie), a woman with a husband and child, who are deeply in love.
		The story, a breathtaking look at the very lengths people go to find passion in their lives and, at the cost of their own sanity or lives, the peace that feeling of passion brings to one's life.
		All of the elements combined make Passion an unforgettable experience and a truly wonderful and entertaining video that allows you to cry openly and unregrettably for the tragic consequences of the characters choices and actions.

	Bach and the Play of Passion
		The expectations of ‘play’ as performance and ‘passion’ as expression in Bach’s oeuvre have been ingrained in mainstream culture for over 200 years, and for most of those years performance ideals have been sought with the same methodological and philosophical fervour as for all music that went before and after.
		Hermann Scherchen’s identification with this music and its curvature of line is a wonder of the sophisticated Viennese Bach tradition, one which, if not as prolific in quality as in quantity, represents a gold standard of achievement in the early years of cantata recordings.

		Passion is--even for Stephen Sondheim--a remarkable musical, a brooding meditation on love and passion that is at once simple and deeply moving.
		Based on Italian filmmaker Ettore Scola's Passione d'Amore (1981) and its source, the novel Fosca (1869) by I. Tarchetti, Lapine's book has a polished singleness of purpose rare in musical theater.
		The dialogue is spare, and the story--about an army officer torn between two lovers, one pretty but shallow the other plain but deep--advances with breathtaking economy.
