Honour the Lenten season with a powerful musical experience.Join the Regina Symphony Orchestra for St. John Passion by Johann Sebastian Bach, a deeply moving work that has resonated with audiences for centuries.
Composed in 1724, this dramatic oratorio for choir, soloists, and Baroque orchestra recounts the arrest, trial, and crucifixion of Jesus. Through a rich blend of Lutheran chorales, poetic reflection, and expressive storytelling, the music shifts from intimate moments of contemplation to powerful, emotional intensity.
First performed in Leipzig for Good Friday, St. John Passion remains one of Bach’s most profound works, exploring themes of suffering, hope, and redemption that continue to speak to audiences today.
