Experience a ‘musical feast’ for the eyes and ears as Sydney Philharmonia Choirs presents J.S. Bach’s choral masterpiece of devotion and spectacle, the St John Passion, at the Sydney Opera House Concert Hall this Easter Saturday, 4 April.

Following a critically acclaimed landmark Australian premiere performance of Mendelssohn’s 1841 version of Bach’s St Matthew Passion last Easter, Sydney Philharmonia Choirs returns to perform ‘one of the greatest choral works ever written’ (Classic FM).

Renowned Australian conductor Brett Weymark OAM leads the 140‑voice Symphony Chorus and Sydney Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra – performing on period instruments – through the Easter story, a dramatic ‘sermon of sound’ filled with fury, betrayal, anguish, and comfort – all underpinned by a compelling humanity.

Don’t miss this magnificent mix of narrative, drama, and reflection, performed by Australia’s premier choral organisation in Sydney’s most iconic venue.
