The Saint Matthew Passion
Description
Jonathan Miller's daring dramatization of Bach's most famous work. The whole production is in the round, with singers and orchestra in ordinary clothes. The oratorio is sung in German in a very intimate staging, with a 26-piece double orchestra of period instruments, two 12-strong choirs and soloists Rufus Muller, Richard Jackson, Nancy Argenta, Jonathan Peter Kenny, Jamie MacDougall, and Stephen Varcoe. Perfect for Easter each year.
