Bach: St Matthew Passion / Philippe Herreweghe

Thu, Mar 28, 2024, 19:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Chor & Orchester des Collegium Vocale Gent, Julian Prégardien (Tenor), Florian Boesch (Bass-Bariton), Dorothee Mields (Soprano), Grace Davidson (Soprano), Hugh Cutting (Countertenor), Hugo Hymas (Tenor), Benedict Hymas (Tenor), Konstantin Krimmel (Bariton), Stephan MacLeod (Bass), Philippe Herreweghe (Conductor)
Thank goodness for Mendelssohn! If the 20-year-old Felix Mendelssohn had not brought Bach’s »St Matthew Passion« back to light in 1829, after it had lain forgotten in some archive since the first performance a century earlier, an incomparable masterpiece would be missing from the concert and church music repertoire. More than that, in fact: with his revival of the »St Matthew Passion«, the young composer kicked off a massive renaissance of Bach’s music that has lost none of its momentum to this day. One of the core works in this Bach revival is the »St Matthew Passion«, whose dramatic density and brilliant musical structure cast a spell over audiences 300 years ago, as they still do today. The Easter masterpiece is performed tonight at the Elbphilharmonie by a team of experienced Bach specialists: Philippe Herreweghe conducts the Collegium Vocale Gent together with a hand-picked line-up of soloists. A musical experience that will certainly stay with the audience long after the concert is over.

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.
