St John Passion is now available!

I’m very proud to announce that the English version of Johannespassionen, St John Passion is available for purchase. Both the Vocal score and Full score can now be ordered. This passion was commissioned in 2015 by 13 different churches in Sweden. It’s scored for Mixed choir (SATB), 4 soloists, Wind quintet and organ. The duration is about an hour. Besides the Gospel from St John it includes hymns from the Swedish Hymn book (The Church of Sweden) in brand new translations by John Hearne. It’s my belief that this passion is possible for good amateur choirs to perform. Last fall there was made a recording of the work in Cincinnati, Ohio that will be published this coming fall. Meanwhile there is a very good recording on the Swedish original version which one can buy as a CD or listen to immediately via Youtube or Spotify.
