J.S. Bach: St John Passion
Johann Sebastian Bach's first major work as the cantor of Leipzig's St. Thomas Church has for hundreds of years appealed to believers and non-believers alike with its universal appeal. Instead of as a suffering human, the St John Passion portrays Jesus as cosmic energy, breaking free from human chains, whose embrace reaches out to all humanity. The delicate arias, heartbreaking interludes and uplifting choral scenes are among Bach's most moving.

The concert has an intermission. The concert ends around 9:15 p.m.
