The annual Passion Concert is a cherished tradition. Bach, like no other, expresses the essence of the Passion story through his music. The St John Passion is often referred to as his only opera, showcasing his unparalleled sense of theatricality in dramatic scenes, evident from the captivating opening chorus, Herr, unser Herrscher. This year, the Antwerp Symphony Orchestra collaborates with conductor Daniel Reuss and Cappella Amsterdam, European leaders in their genre. Together, they present the powerful and inspiring Messiah story from John, featuring two of the world's finest vocalists: German tenor Werner Güra as the evangelist and Peter Harvey in the role of Christ.
