Bach's St John Passion
About this event
Leading interpreters of Bach unite for this singular performance of a choral masterpiece.
Friendship. Betrayal. Grief. Hope. Death. Life. This is the greatest story ever told, set to music by the greatest composer who ever lived. Bach wrote music as an act of worship, marvelling at the complexity of life and humbling himself before God. His account of the final days of Jesus' life is the pinnacle of choral music. Dramatic, awe inspiring and utterly human, it is a feat of storytelling that captures the sublime.
For Richard Tognetti, a musician who has devoted a large part of his musical life to JS Bach, taking the 'St John Passion' on a national tour is a long-held dream. To mark this special event the ACO is joined by Vox Luminis, the multi-award-winning Belgian vocal ensemble whose radiant sound has made it one of the most admired interpreters of Baroque vocal music in the world today.
Bach's 'St John Passion' is an act of pure devotion that embodies the power of music and spirit of humanity. For audiences, it is a truly transcendent experience.
