Cantata Singers to Perform Bach’s St. John Passion Through Great Hall Concert Series, Needham
Premiering in 1724 and still resonant 302 years later, the piece blends intimate arias, turbulent choruses and haunting chorales into a deeply human musical experience.
Music director Noah Horn, whose work has been praised as “superb” (The New York Times), “well-prepared and joyful” (Detroit Free Press), “excellent,” and “fluent and fresh” (Opera News) will conduct the ensemble.
A uniquely modern chorale with deep roots in the past, built on a foundation of innovation and versatility, Cantata Singers promotes the rich heritage of choral music inspired by Bach’s musical genius. The group offers fresh, inspiring interpretations of iconic music interspersed with intriguing, unfamiliar and yet accessible works. Altogether, Cantata Singers has presented more than 50 Boston premieres of both old and new music.
