Aperçu
Musique Royale proudly presents the King's College Chapel performing J.S. Bach’s St John Passion the weekend before Easter. Director Paul Halley describes the piece as “possibly Bach’s most intense and dramatic work.” Halley explains, “Bach was clearly moved by the gospel texts and the profound effect of these words on him has resulted in music of enormous power and poignancy.”
