Programme

Overview

Mark the 300th anniversary of Bach’s St Matthew Passion with a monumental performance uniting three choirs, two orchestras and stellar soloists in a profound retelling of the Passion narrative. Be swept away by sublime chorales and dramatic recitatives delivered by an acclaimed Evangelist under masterful direction.Celebrating the 300th anniversary of Bach’s St Matthew Passion, this extraordinary concert unites three choirs – including a historic boys’ ensemble and a talented junior choir – with two orchestras, a full roster of soloists and a devoted Evangelist to bring Bach’s epic narrative to life. Under the baton of an esteemed conductor, the Evangelist’s expressive recitatives guide listeners through scenes of sorrow, betrayal and redemption, while the choirs respond with hauntingly pure chorales and the orchestras weave rich, intricate textures. From the intimate vulnerability of solo arias to the overwhelming power of full-ensemble passages, every moment resonates with emotional depth and spiritual intensity. This monumental celebration offers a rare opportunity to experience one of Western music’s greatest masterpieces in all its profound and moving glory.
