Bach’s work will be rescheduled for later in the summer as the current COVID restrictions ease. Exact date and time TBD.
Mercy will appear as one of the soprano soloists in this rarely performed work, the Schütz St. Matthew Passion.
This beautiful work predates Bach’s settings of the passions and, in many ways, is their direct predecessor. Scored for a small vocal ensemble, this Passion performance will feature the Bach+ Vocal Consort and members of the Annapolis Chorale Chamber Chorus. Artistic Director J. Ernest Green and Bach+ Director, Larry Molinaro will lead The “St. Matthew Passion.”
** This is a program change from the Bach “St. Matthew Passion” that was originally programmed for this spring. Bach’s work will be rescheduled for later in the summer as the current COVID restrictions ease.
