Concertgebouw Orchestra: Bach's St Matthew Passion

Fri, Apr 11, 2025, 19:00
Het Concertgebouw, Main Hall (Amsterdam)
Concertgebouw Orchestra, Nederlands Kamerkoor, Nationaal Kinderkoor, Riccardo Minasi (Conductor), Mauro Peter (Evangelist), Aurel Dawidiuk, Cody Quattlebaum (Christus), Jane Archibald (Soprano), Jess Dandy (Alto), Valerio Contaldo (Tenor), Konstantin Krimmel (Bass)
The week before Easter wouldn’t be complete without Bach’s always overwhelming St Matthew Passion, which for decades has been one of the most popular works among classical music lovers in the Netherlands. Bach composed the Passion nearly 300 years ago in such an emotional, compelling way that it leaves few listeners unmoved.The Concertgebouw Orchestra first performed the work in January 1891, and eight years later, the annual Passion tradition was officially established. This year’s Passion performance features Riccardo Minasi, one of the most interesting conductors to rise to fame in recent years, and a specialist in eighteenth-century music. Originally scheduled for 2020, his first appearance with the Concertgebouw Orchestra was postponed owing to the coronavirus pandemic. It’s high time he came to share his vision of Bach’s immortal masterpiece with the Concertgebouw Orchestra.

St Matthew Passion

Fri, Apr 4, 2025, 19:00
Muziekgebouw, Hertog Jan Zaal (Eindhoven)
Hans-Christoph Rademann (Conductor), Benedikt Kristjánsson (Evangelist), Carine Tinney (Soprano), Kristen Witmer (Soprano), Terry Wey (Alto), Olivia Vermeulen (Alto), Georg Poplutz (Tenor), James Gilchrist (Tenor), Matthias Winckhler (Bass), Tobias Berndt (Bass), Kampen Boys Choir
Every year, for more than a century, we have been performing one of Bach’s most popular works: the St Matthew Passion. This year, the prominent German conductor Hans-Christoph Rademann is leading our ensemble.Bach’s masterly music keeps moving us“Betrayal, condemnation and death, but above all – love. Although the words of the St Matthew Passion are age-old, the story and the message are still relevant today. And every year, Bach’s masterly music moves us once again. Bach’s masterpiece is in good hands with Rademann. In every St Matthew Passion he performs, this real Bach man – founder of the Dresdner Kammerchor, artistic director of the Bachakademie Stuttgart and regular name at the international music festival Bachfest – seeks out a new contemporary approach, always keeping a careful eye on the monumental character of the work. For decades, he has been one of the most successful choral conductors in Germany. Plenty of reason, therefore, to invite Rademann as the guest conductor for our traditional Passion concerts.
