Britain's What's On Event Guide
St Ives Choral Society Concert
J S Bach's St John Passion
Of the two Passion settings bequeathed to us by the ravages of time, Bach's St John Passion is the shorter, earthier, older sibling. In many ways, this is a vivid interpretation of the biblical narrative with raw emotions laid bare. Yet, for all of this, it is a truly optimistic and uplifting work as we are led to anticipate with hope the Resurrection of Christ. Six soloists, orchestra and choir combine to present this sublime work.
