Bach Mass in B minor

Celebrate the brilliance of Bach’s final and greatest choral masterpiece: his magnificent Mass in B minor. Bach’s music resonates beyond place and time; reaching up to the splendour of heaven, it draws on the full spectrum of human emotion—grief and joy intertwined, anguish and elation soaring in intricate harmonies.

Dive into the rich beauty of the Baroque as we explore a choral experience that transcends the sacred, elevating the human spirit with every note. More than a concert, this is an exploration of truth, humanity, and the sheer scale of emotion that only Bach can convey.

Sydney Chamber Choir, celebrating its 50th year of continuous music making, is joined for this intimate performance by The Muffat Collective Orchestra, led by Matthew Greco with many of Australia’s best period instrumentalists, together with a stellar line-up of soloists.
