The St John Passion

Bach’s St John Passion remains a timeless story, posing new questions to every generation. Under the direction of Johanna Soller, Artistic Director of the Netherlands Bach Society, the work receives a clear and penetrating interpretation. The Antwerp Symphony Orchestra joins a select group of international soloists to weave a narrative spanning from vulnerability to catharsis. This Passion, even more direct than the St Matthew Passion, echoes timeless themes of injustice and courage. Soller skillfully illuminates the dramatic lines, offering an emotionally intense experience. This annual tradition features one of the most compelling vocal masterpieces ever composed.
