Since the publication of the audio recording in CD form and in online streaming services on March 8, 2024 (CD label: resonando<\/a><\/strong>) many critiques have appeared in addition in newspapers, magazines, and online media, and the St. Mark Passion has been heard and discussed on numerous radio stations.<\/p>\n

For these media echos as well, we offer the parties involved our sincere thanks. You will find below all contributions that may be currently heard or read. The list is brought up to date regularly.<\/p>\n
