On Saturday the 12th April we will welcome our friends from Ipswich Choral Society for a joint Easter performance of J S Bach's sacred oratorio the St Matthew Passion.
We have never before performed this masterpiece, for double choir and orchestra, in the splendid setting of Halifax Minster. Particularly at the start of Holy Week, this will be a very special occasion. The piece is rarely heard in English and this translation by John Longstaff and Andrew Greenan will hugely enhance the meaning of this sublime music for singers and audience alike. Save the date and watch this space for more details
