About the Event
Hans‐Christoph Rademann conducts the Chœur et Orchestre du Gaechinger Cantorey in a performance of Bach's St. Matthew Passion.
In the The St. Matthew Passion, his second major Passion after the St. John Passion, Bach made several innovations, such as adding a third choir and more varied recitatives. The result is a masterpiece that is one of the most poignant and complex Passions of all time.
