Composed when Bach was at the height of his powers, this Passion contains some of his most exquisite and communicative writing for the human voice. It’s a fierce, heart-wrenching realisation of Christ’s physical and spiritual journey to the cross that still speaks to audiences with a visceral energy and timeless relevance.
The Scottish Chamber Choir and MD, Iain McLarty, are joined by sparkling young soloists from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland and professional orchestral ensemble, Camerata Alba, in the beautiful acoustic of Edinburgh’s Canongate Kirk.
Please join us at 7.30pm on Saturday 23 March for this performance of one of the greatest sacred oratorios. Tickets are £15, with £10 student concessions and free entry for under-16s, from Martin Tarr (01383 723989).
