"Soll mein Kind, mein Leben sterben" Handel's Brockes Passion | PRJCT Amsterdam & Maarten Engeltjes

"Soll mein Kind, mein Leben sterben" — Must my child, my life, die? Few lines in the Brockes-Passion cut as deep as this. A mother's question, addressed directly to her dying son — raw, desperate, and utterly human. Handel sets this extraordinary text as a duet, giving Jesus his own voice to answer. Carolyn Sampson and Edward Grint bring this heartbreaking exchange to life with rare tenderness and depth, accompanied by PRJCT Amsterdam conducted by Maarten Engeltjes at Het Concertgebouw Amsterdam for NTR ZaterdagMatinee
