About

Ex Cathedra Choir & Baroque Orchestra under Jeffrey Skidmore perform Bach's St Matthew Passion at Beacon Hall, 300 years after its 1727 premiere.

Ex Cathedra Choir & Baroque Orchestra, conducted by Jeffrey Skidmore, perform Bach's St Matthew Passion in a concert marking the 300th anniversary of the work's first performance in Leipzig on Good Friday 1727. The Passion is sung in German with English surtitles, portraying the drama of betrayal, the clamour of the crowd and the poignancy of grief through choruses, arias and orchestral writing. The performance runs 3 hours 10 minutes including a 30-minute interval, with doors at 18:00 and a finish time of approximately 21:40. It forms part of Bristol Beacon's 2026/27 Orchestral Season.
