Gary Graden and the St. Jacobs Chamber Choir have performed the St. John Passion in the St. Jacobs Church regularly since 1990, the last 13 years together with Maria Lindal and her REbaroque ensemble. Though the St. John Passion has become something of a staple in Sweden's churches at Easter, there have been very few recordings with Swedish performers. This release documents not only the long collaboration between the St. Jacobs Chamber Choir and REbaroque, but is also the first recording of a tradition that has existed in the St. Jacobs Church for almost seven decades.
