Release the 25 minute version!!! I want to hear it all! (yes, including the fugue)

Those chorales had me howling! That and the nod to Mozart!

After a week of singing the Johannespassion this is quite the refreshment, brilliant work Freddy

Woah the recitative parts are so moving and storytelling!

What is with the references everywhere. Love it, No.13 the confutatis maledictis. And no. 14 had me dying😂

Not the Mozart D minor requiem reference at 6:40 XD I absolutely love this and am hoping to one day get to hear this being performed in concert in full. One day perhaps. Truly amazingly written and full of hilarious references! I love it!

Deeply moving and anyone called Dichard Rouglas (at least the way I pronounce it) will have a great professional future ahead of him.

I'd love to see an actually rehearsed version with full orchestra sometime, although I know it wouldn't be easy

You’re literally the next PDQ Bach at this point

As a choir lover, I would love to sing these things. They are good fun.

I appreciate the final chorale quoting PDQ Bach's prelude in c# minor.

Some good meta humour in here. Even the parodies are parodies of parodies. Slow can-can already done by Saint-Seans and Little Lamb x Bach by Schlicke.

The ending Is Mary had a Little Lamb (Maria hat ein' kleines Lamm gebuslmst)

Appreciate the fact that they're all sight singing and haven't seen it before!! Makes it even funnier and shows off their talent too, must have been a blast of an evening :D

This was so incredible that I found one of my hands desperately clutching at fresh air

OMG I've been waiting for this for a long time, now you are the new Bach

Und es gab Lammfleisch mit dem Naanbrot - aber wo war die Lammsoße?!!

So glad to have had the honour of hearing renowned British alto, Wendy Frickham.

Impassioned performance!

The alto messing up at the ending was perfect lol

BEAUTIFUL

I've just found something to slip into the choirmaster's stack of music next April Fools

The "take this cup away from me" had me dead

This is so much fun! I'm so glad to see legit composers trying out some funny music. Classical music like this goes back so hard so it's so hard to approach lightly, one feels like they have to have studied an immense weight of works and history to begin to comprehend them, but it isn't always the case! As Glenn Gould says, just plunge right in! And of course, I can't help but be reminded of the great and famous PDQ Bach and his own masterpieces :)

6:41 wait, is that Mozart's Confutatis?

So fantastic!

Don't think I've ever been this early. Awesome stuff!

comedic oratorios are my new favourite thing

Someone send this to the Bachvereniging. I think they can perform this instead of the Mathew Passion or John Passion.

This is so, *so* good.

Damn this is great! 🎉🎉🎉

Leonard Bernstein is quoted as saying that it would take a lifetime of dissecting Bach's Saint Matthew Passion alone and a person would never find how many symbolic references and allusions there are in it. The same applies to you in the number of musical jokes, direct quotes, and allusions you put in.

As a German I say: "Yes, we kann Can- Can!"😂

Okay this is bloody adorable - thank you for your service

Wonderful! Hilarious! :)

Absolutely hilarious

Instant buy

The madman did it!!! :DDDDD

A truly tragic tale, but an uplifting, heartwarming ending haha

The Jesus Christ Superstar reference did it for me. Score has been bought and planned for reading through soon

He did it guys! He wrote an oratorio!

Choir humor at its best.

It is finished had me pink ! 😂😂

Could you put the xml file up for purchase as well? I would love to listen the the full (albeit midi) orchestrated version!

Hahaha so many parodies inside there and I absolutely love it - great work there as usual! Just curious - did you set the chorales yourself as a deliberate parody of a 'generic' chorale? It is a bit different from 'actual' Bach so I was trying to get the reference right haha

I know you friend Mr Adach!!! He is my musical studies teacher!!!

7:08 Lmao

Can i buy a signed copy with a picture in the style of the bach passions on the front xD

Even better than PDQ :)

Literally came back watching the John Passion. I think this is better

Very silly and amusing. Says a lot more about choirs and what happens in them than it does about God. I enjoyed it.

09:02 Would like to see and organ prelude of this one lol

I had to come back cause I only just got the joke of "St Eamy"...

great! would have almost seemed like a lost bach passion if it were not for the parallel fifths at 9:05

Very funny stuff! I like the use of figured bass; I don't think anybody writing today still uses it. Well, until now. I'm an American so I don't get the "St Eamy" part of the name; is it a football club or something? Two nations divided by a common language, as that Irish playwright said.
