In the spirit of Johann Sebastiaan Bach Egon Kracht will perform an alternative, instrumental St Matthew's Passion. People who know this very popular masterpiece will recognise the music, but will be pleasantly surprised by the new approach. The novice will be surprised by so much beautiful music.
Kracht's Matthew's Passion is played by an orchestra, consisting of six people, who, like Egon, have earned their stripes in jazz music and have experience in theatre. They play the game with tradition and adventure in a thorough fashion. Each member of the band will shape his solo within the musical structure of Bach's great story.
Monday 25 March, 12.35 hr, Amphitheater, Vrijhof, EUR 3/1.
