Arcangelo: St Matthew Passion

,Hall
Arcangelo

The internationally acclaimed period performance ensemble Arcangelo performs J S Bach’s mighty oratorio St Matthew Passion.

Led by Jonathan Cohen, and featuring Nick Pritchard as the evangelist and Alex Rosen as Christ, Bach’s immense retelling of Christ’s betrayal and execution was first performed on Good Friday in 1727 - meaning this year’s performance takes place just shy of 299 years later. The work has only grown in status since. 

Arcangelo was formed in 2010, comprising outstanding musicians under the dynamic leadership of its artistic director and founder Jonathan Cohen. The group’s ethos is ruled by a determination to apply the deep listening skills and artistry of chamber music-making to every piece in its repertoire, from trio sonatas to oratorios.
