Saint Matthew passion

I m looking forward to go and experience the St.Matthew passion again just before Easter.This masterpiece by J.S. Bach is traditionally performed around Easter time as it engages the story of the Crucifiction , death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

I m not religious but even for a non believer this is a wonderfull majestic piece of music.It was said that Bach told that he saw God,Heaven and the Angels while he was composing this music.

I m especially moved by these 2 parts.First is called "Erbarme dich" and second,"Wir setzen uns mit tranen nieder"
