마태 수난곡 (Matthäus-Passion) is a sacred oratorio composed by 요한 세바스티안 바흐 (Johann Sebastian Bach) in 1727. It is based on the Passion narrative from the 신약 성경 (New Testament), specifically the Gospel of 마태복음 (Matthew). The work is known for its emotional depth and intricate musical structure, featuring soloists, a choir, and an orchestra. The oratorio is typically performed during the 사순절 (Lent) and 부활절 (Easter) seasons, reflecting on the suffering and crucifixion of 예수 그리스도 (Jesus Christ). It consists of recitatives, arias, and chorales, which together convey the story and its theological significance, making it a central piece in the choral repertoire.
