Join the Parliament Choir for a performance of JS Bach's moving St Matthew Passion.
Setting the description of Christ’s last days from St Matthew’s gospel, the piece gives a moving and powerful portrayal of betrayal, judgement, death and love. The message of the St Matthew Passion is as relevant today as it was 2000 years ago.

It is well-loved and has performed to large and enthusiastic audiences in iconic venues such as Westminster Hall, Westminster Abbey, Westminster Cathedral, the Royal Festival Hall, the Banqueting House, Coventry Cathedral and York Minster.
It has been an ambassador for the UK and the UK Parliament in Berlin (Bundestag), the Czech Republic (St Vitus Cathedral), Italy (Tuscan Festival) and France (Notre Dame de Paris) and The Vatican.
