Bass-baritone Cody Quattlebaum sings Jesus's aria 'Mein Vater, mein Vater!' ('My Father, my Father!') from Handel's Brockes-Passion HWV 48 [c.1716]. Cody is joined by the Academy of Ancient Music, directed by Peter Whelan.
TRANSLATION:
'Mein Vater, mein Vater!
Schau, wie ich mich quäle,
Erbarme dich, Erbarme dich ob meiner Not,
Mein Herze bricht,
Und meine Seele betrübet sich
Bis an den Tod!'
'My Father, my Father!
see how I suffer,
be merciful, be merciful in my time of need!
My heart is breaking,
and my soul is anguished
even unto death.'
300 years from the first known performance (Hamburg, Holy week, 1719), the Academy of Ancient Music re-discovered this neglected masterpiece with a new edition of the music, new translation, new recording, and a concert performance on Good Friday 2019 at London's Barbican Hall.
