Bach: St John's Passion

NDR Vocal Ensemble & Concerto Köln

Available from 28/03/2026

Johann Sebastian Bach's St John Passion depicts the trial of Jesus Christ in impressive musical images. The Evangelist acts as narrator as the story is told in a sequence of arias, chorales and solo parts. Intense dramatic moments alternate with quiet, meditative passages.

The NDR vocal ensemble perform with Concerto Köln conducted by Klass Stock, and tenor Sebastian Kohlhepp as the Evangelist.

Performed on 28 March 2026 at Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie.
