J. S. Bach: St. Matthew Passion

Both performances have sold out; any available seats will be sold at the door in a last-minute rush.

Known as the “great Passion” because of its scope, stunning emotional range and theatrically dramatic presentation of the last days of Christ, the Passion According to St. Matthew is one of the world’s great works of art. We present it with the forces Bach intended: with two choirs, two orchestras, a children’s chorus, a world-class roster of period soloists and our outstanding SFBC Baroque Orchestra. Don’t miss the opportunity to hear this magnificent work!
