On Wednesday 1 April, join us in Edinburgh for our open rehearsal of Bach’s Matthew Passion, first performed on Good Friday 1727. Amidst the drama of betrayal, trial, judgement, and crucifixion, there runs a thread of love, both human and divine. Eight singers and two orchestras work together and apart to narrate, comment, and reflect on the last days of Jesus’ life.
