Hearing the Music with Maestro Delta David Gier and Rev. J. Mark Bertrand

The Beauty of Bach’s St. Matthew Passion

Sunday, March 27 at 3 pm hosted by Grace Presbyterian Church

The story of Christ’s crucifixion set to music in Bach’s St. Matthew Passion, one of the greatest works of sacred music in human history, has been a source of wonder to listeners and a source of devotion to believers since its first performance on Good Friday in 1727. Bach’s profound faith and musical genius are both in evidence. This event, hosted by Grace Presbyterian Church, will unpack both the artistry and the theology of this monumental work.

Maestro Gier will conduct the SDSO performance of the St Matthew Passion on Saturday, April 2. “The Beauty of Bach’s St. Matthew Passion” will prepare you for hearing the music like never before.
