Midsummer Shakespeare
A wonderful evening of choral music inspired by William Shakespeare. |
J.S. Bach St John Passion
Romsey Choral Society’s Lenten concert, which took place in the majestic surroundings of Romsey Abbey on the eve of Palm Sunday, was a triumph on every level. Sung in German, this performance of JS Bach’s St John Passion – the Easter story according to the Gospel of John – took place almost 300 years to the day after its premiere in St Nicholas’ Church, Leipzig. Under the expert guidance of Musical Director Richard Pearce, soloists, choir and orchestra collaborated to bring to life a glorious rendition of this giant amongst choral works, to the evident delight of a large and appreciative audience.
