The All of Bach version of the St. Matthew Passion has no subtitles (boo). On the other hand, it does have a comically oversized lute https://youtu.be/ZwVW1ttVhuQ

Matthäus-Passion am Gründonnerstag.
Freiburger Barockorchester
Vox Luminis
Lionel Meunier
Konzerthaus Dortmund

A remarkable performance, without a director, alt voices sung by men, and the soloist who are part of the choirs. A very expressive reading of the Matthäus, with varying quality. Yet, worthwhile the travel.
