Bach Society of Saint Louis St. John Passion Concert
Only
Bach can produce great works of art that also take the listener on along a
spiritual and emotional journey. The Leipzig
master’s setting of the Passion story from the Gospel of St. John combines powerful emotion with intense drama,
providing a meaningful preparation for Lent.
The Chorus and Orchestra are joined by six outstanding soloists who were
featured in our recent St. Matthew
Passion, tenor William Watson as the Evangelist, baritone Stephen
Morscheck singing the role of Jesus,
countertenor Jay Carter,
tenor Lawrence Jones, bass Curtis Streetman, along with the Bach Society debut of soprano Kathryn Lewek. Tickets are available online: www.bachsociety.org
