About This Song

About "Matthäuspassion, SWV 479 (St. Matthew Passion): Und es begab sich, da Jesus alle diese Rede vollendet hatte" by Ars Nova Copenhagen

Schütz's St. Matthew Passion excerpt unfolds as a hushed narrative. The recitative 'Und es begab sich' is a tightrope walk between stillness and dread—each syllable a footstep toward betrayal. Ars Nova Copenhagen renders the text with forensic clarity, the harmonic air thickening like storm clouds before the crucifixion.
