The Greek Passion

Album by Bohuslav Martinů & Filharmonie Brno & Charles Mackerras

The Greek Passion is an opera by Czech composer Bohuslav Martinů, premiered in 1961. The score blends neo‑Romantic orchestral textures, modernist harmonic language and prominent choral writing with Mediterranean folk‑influenced motifs, and it is one of Martinů's late-stage large-scale stage works that reflects his engagement with communal and religious themes.
