Ravishing playing by a born Boccherinian…
![Nico van der Meel, Concerto Amsterdam, La Furia - Bach: Johannes Passion [The 1725 Version] (2012)](https://pixhost.icu/avaxhome/a1/5e/00825ea1_medium.jpg)
This 2007 recording of J.S. Bach's Johannes Passion, featuring Concerto d'Amsterdam and the Flemish vocal ensemble La Furia, uses the 1725 version of the piece, which substitutes some movements (most noticeably the opening chorus) more staid than those of the 1724 version. That decision to go for restraint rather than passion carries over to the performance style, as well, which tends to be reserved and tastefully correct rather than stirringly dramatic. It couldn't be characterized as flaccid because there is certainly a high energy level when appropriate, but even in these sections the performers seem more concerned with brisk precision than with stirring the blood.
